I have joined the LC Club as a last resort in finding answers to my problem. I have a 2000 model Land Cruiser Cygnus V8 with 265 000km on the clock, in perfect condition. Never broken down, never not started. Ever since I had it the ABS system gets activated automatically and intermittently without warning (3 - 6 - 12 months in between activation) All incidents happened on good tar roads at speeds of 80-100km/hr. I have tried all of the following, but without success. New tyres, checked wheel balancing and alignment, cleaned sensors on each wheel, electronic diagnostics (no recorded incident) and gave Cruiser to local Toyota to test and fault was replicated. They contacted Lexus (Sygnus) specialists in South Africa and Japan without an answer. My wife doesn’t want to ride with me anymore and wants me to sell the best vehicle I ever had. It is a lounge on wheels and takes me everywhere. As a final attempt I considered having ABS deactivated, but concerned about safety. Hope someone has a Solution!
Thanks
