I thought they had normal servo brakes mate, has it go no pedal or a rock hard pedal?

The Renault 19 had the early Bosch ABS I think? This is more similar to the modern abs systems. The 21 turbo system differs as there is no vacuum servo, instead a hydraulic pump pressurises the fluid and stores in an accumulator.

Some also had the Bendix hydraulic servo type similiar to the 21 in operation,
I'll see if I can dig some info up.

Never knew that, certainly never seen one!

Ditch the system and get the non ABS setup from another 19 valver.

Yes very few had the bendix system as it was a add on cost when specing a new car. In my time I have only worked on 2 vehicles with this type of system that I noticed due to an ABS problems.
These idea of a hydraulic servo assistance has returned on the all electric Zoe, but unfortuantly its to intergrated in to the vehicle to allow any adaptions.

don't they have a relay on the board that can't be removed in the scuttle tray and the relay gets water in it and dies.... and bingo.... no brakes
I'm sure @quadrastu will remember more.......

All the electronic items are in the scuttle area if you have no AC or on the inner wing with AC.

 

[kev]

so you think its just a relay issue then ?

I have a full Renault Bendix ABS instruction manual if that's any use?
