[s-cars] ABS issue

[Young, Steve]

Lister...

Let me start by saying this could conceivably apply to any ABS equipped car.  I bought a B5 A4 Avant, 2.8L, 5sp about 15 months ago.  I bought it with the ABS light on and the flashing brake light.  Typical ABS module failure.  I got around to having it rebuilt last month.  Reinstalled it and no lights...cool.  Or so I thought.  Now I have the ABS activating on 9 out of 10 stops regardless of road condition.  I am not convinced it is the module, and can't help but wonder if this situation is what caused the module to fail in the first place.  Could this be a bad wheel speed sensor fooling the ABS system into thinking it needs to compensate for slippery road conditions at all times?  Anyone dealt with this issue before??  TIA
