I have had ABS ECU failed and the brakes still functional normally.under normal braking.

Well done CLplusfour


As it seems such a simple matter to make mistakes, I am not of the type to be amused by "misleading comments" such as
" ABS is not TC traction Control or any other form of anti skid control it just stops the brakes locking up so you can steer your way out of trouble under severe braking when the wheels lock"

My limited understanding is that ABS is primarilly designed to prevent "skidding" of any or all wheels that might struggle to grip on a road or other surface under braking..?

Also ABS function seems designed not only to maintain the ability to steer out of trouble under braking on a poor road surface, but also to assist in braking efficiently in a straight line in tricky conditions when otherwise wheels might lock-up, potentially causing loss of directional control..?

As ever more than happy for my thinking to be corrected if/when I get things wrong.
