The ABS computer performs self-test right after you start driving and
apparently it detects a fault and shuts off. Look for broken wires at
the wheel sensors.

I didn't get any file attachement with your letter. Try to describe how
it looks.

If this is the only fault code you get, it's probably what it says:
"Code 2111: RPM sensor: control unit not receiving signal". Those
sensors rarely go bad, I would suspect bad wire contact. I'm not sure,
but the engine probably is able to run without this sensor.

Check if you have a Haynes Publishing distributor in Romania. Haynes
makes quite comprehensive repair manuals.
