How can you tell if a MX-3 has ABS ? mines a jap car (Presso Eunos) and ive got a ABS fuse in the engine bay, and an icon in the dash that does not light up. but i cant find a hydraulic unit, but looking for anything in that V6 engine bay is a nightmare.

The ABS control unit is under the passenger side seat in the US models, if that is there then you have ABS. Under the Drivers side is the seatbelt control module module so don't get them mixed up. I have all the fuses and stuff like you said but no control module so I don't think I have ABS.<BR>

Yeah I know. It took me a while to stop hitting the door with my left hand when I wanted to change gears when I moved here.

<BR>I'll take a stab and say the drivers side then. But you never know.<BR>Cheers<BR>

Mine was retro fitted with ABS, so there's no badge on the back. The best way to find out is find a nice quiet bit of straight road and do an emergency stop. If you hear an electronic whine, and you don't skid all over the place, you've most likely got it!
