Hi there! First of all, im new in the forum, my name is Jorge, and I looking for some help for the ABS of my ST1100. I did the code retrieval procedure, and it blinked 1 time, so I figured out it is "Faulty front modulator crank angle sensor system", but I dont know very much about mechanics and I'm a bit lost. Can someone help me? Where I should start? Thanks, have a good day!

Welcome to the forum from Cornwall UK! I only have the basic model, so hopefully one of the more knowledgeable members will be able to help.

What year? The ABSI error codes are different than the ABSII error codes.
Hi!! I am so grateful for your interest. The year of the bike is 1995. Thank you very much.

That would be a ABSI and all of mine are ABSII models. I would contact JHeath on this board as he is really good on the ABS stuff.

Hi Jorge, this may be useful to you.

That appears to be for the ABSII and I think his is an ABSI - similar but different codes and procedures, IIUC.

Jorge,
Please look at the steering head and post here the first twelve characters of the 17 in your frame number, as in
JH2SC26 ....
Assuming 1995, you looked at the wrong codes list, and the one someone attached is wrong because it is marked "after 1995" , as Phil noted.
You don't have ABS II. You don't have a crank angle sensor.
Honda calls it ABS/TCS.
Again, I want those next five characters.
The Haynes manual may NOT help, but the Honda one should if after i1991.
Thanks to all who posted.
ALL, it looks as if he needs a copy of Section 16-A of the Honda service manual.

Hi, the first 12 numbers of the steering head code are: JH2SC2687OM5
I also attach a video of my ST1100, where you can see the buzzing sound and the ABS leds. (they are not mounted, as you can see):

Hi Jorge, the info I sent you explains that the lights should go out ONLY when you are moving forward, that is actually riding the bike. Uncle Phil may be able to advise you better than me as he is much more experienced with ABS than I am and has several STs.

Yes, the ABSII system lights go out once you are moving.
I have had them blink if you turn the key on and sit for a while without moving.
We need to find the ABSI error codes if your bike is older than a 1996.

He has a 1995 Spanish ST1100AS where S is the year code.
I think the ABS light should come on steady and not go out until about 8 km per hour. The blinking and fault code mean a defect, I think,
The buzzing is probably a pump operating in a modulator. It is not normally loud compared to engine noise, but maybe Jorge put the microphone near the pump. If so, the buzzing sound is good news.
Where to start‽
Owner manual after 1991 for how ABS lights should light up, go out, and not blink.
Honda service manual after 1991. If after 1995, read only the 1992 to 1995 section.
Make sure he knows procedure for getting correct fault codes and clearing out the older codes.
Then post results here.
