Does anyone know where the ECU is for the ABS system please?

BINGO! Thanks to the very knowledgeable owners of Ace Brooklands, my ABS is now fully functional! The ABS ECU and associated diagnostic bits are indeed behind the heater box, beautifully hidden away just to make the job that little bit more interesting! Everything checked out part from a broken wire which was the root cause of the problem. Thank you everyone, especially Paho! I might even treat myself to a celebratory beer or three this evening! :)

Next task, get the hood electrics operational once more!

I was heartened to hear of other members suffering ABS problems, and fixing them! I too am suffering an ABS warning light which I believe is an electrical fault. So far, I've changed the abs pump and pressure switch and the separate manifold system. I've also swapped the brake ecu unit for two others purchased on eBay. I've located the ABS (flying) relay adjacent to the ABS ECU and changed that as well. However, this latest thread refers back to an earlier one from Wally https://www.acownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2478.msg20097#msg20097 where he mentioned three relays. I've checked the manual entries for both central and auxiliary fuse boxes and cannot see any abs relays listed there. If anyone knows if and where any more abs relays are located, I will be most grateful! BTW in my research on the Teves Mk2 ABS system I happened across this YouTube video https://youtu.be/VLW3uRY-ack that explains the rudiments (ABS for beginners!)

Adrian, when i get a moment i will try and find the info for the Teves system. One thing i do remember was the fact that the information from Autodata was incorrect and missing a relay.
I will post info when i find it.
