Weird ABS Event

[MEL1523@ACS.TAMU.EDU]

;Thought I'd share a little event with my 89 200q.  I took it to the local 
;no touch car wash ( no comments awright, I had no time for the usual)
;I got back in and noticed the abs off light is on - ok - so I reset and it 
;doesn't go out, hmm,  I go to make my left across three lanes and 
;the brakes (with abs) activate with my foot on the accelerator (this is 
;not a pleasant experience).  I am barely able to complete my left and 
;everything goes back to normal - abs resets - and not even a hint of 
;explanation.  engine never stumbled, but pulled hard through all 2 
;seconds of this event.
;
;I cannot get this to reoccur via test with garden hose - at least not yet.

The numbskulls may have activated the diff lock which locked and then turned 
it off.  It sometimes needs a few rotations to disengage during which time, 
you will have no ABS and a locked diff, which can feel like the brakes on in 
a hard turn.  This has happened to me, and I thought it was the parking 
brake on.
