Default Do those that are having ABS controller issues suffer total ABS failure?

Are there any other symtoms beside the light blinking on the dash. EDL failure, ESP failure or total brake failure?

If the abs light does not prove out, the abs and esp systems will not operate.

Default Still working on it, just picked up a new ABS pump/controler for $150. I think i'm just gonna try

and switch the contol half of it because changing out the whole pump is gonna be a huge PITA.
