Alright I posted a thread a while back about a wierd sound my car was making and got a resoponse from Duffy Flloyd:
It is a aymptom of your ABS Pump Relay sticking closed. What is happening is you start the car the pump motor runs and continues to run until you lift the internal relief valve in the ABS Hydraulic Actuator. That is the noise you are hearing...the relief lifted. The motor will run for about 10 minutes...then trip on thermal overload until it cools then start running again.
Replace the relay. Also possible your Anti Pressure Switch is sticking but MUCH less likely.
Can anyone tell me how i would go about replacing the relay (Pictures?!?!) because i have no idea what ABS are or what they do lol, so i'm not sure exactly on how to replace the relay.
