Re: ABS Screwed?

Every morning when I back out of my garage, I get this humming sound for about 2 seconds and the pedal goes soft, and it feels like the ABS is interfering. It also happens very rarely in traffic when coasting slowly up to a stop sign or light.
I replaced the bomb about 2 months ago.
Any ideas?

I too have experience these characteristics with our 93 100csqw. Last summer after we acquired the car, we had a few of the driveway versions, which I reported to the dealer. They stated that this was a normal test / adjustment of the ABS system and that I shouldn't worry about it. So I just learned to ignore it... although if it is a test, then how come it doesn't happen during each time I back out of the driveway???

It wasn't until, early this year that I had an occurrence of the "slowing to a stop" type of ABS jiggle. This again, is fairly infrequent occurrence, but I intend to follow-up with the dealer during my next visit. 

I'll be interested in what  you hear from other listers.
