Either ABS codes 11 or 13 come on when the brakes are applied and the ABS is not activated. However, when I check continuity on the applicable wires from the solenoid relays to the ABS ECU they are in spec and I can reset the codes by pumping the brakes 10 times in less than 5 seconds. However, as soon as I turn on the car, move a few feet and apply the brakes(without engaging the ABS) the code reappears.

The car has had a serious autocross life so I am replacing both relays. Also, I am beginning to wonder if the front of the ABS actuator/pump is getting too hot due to its vicinity of the turbo, which does not have a thermal blanket...yet (and is on order).

Any info is appreciated.
This may be kind of a shot in the dark, but have you bled the braking system recently? Also, what does your TSRM say about those two codes?

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
