anti lock brake light and radio

[ponytail john]

Hi, Going to look at a '93 Mark this weekend that a daughter is selling for her dad who is 80 and has stopped driving. The car has 60,000 miles on it and she sent pics. and the car looks real good. The dad said the 60,000 service was done, alternator, and brake job done. Now, the daughter says that the anti-lock brake light on the dash stays on and the radio doesn't work. It has the 10 cd changer in the trunk. The daughter says the radio, CD, or cassette doesn't work. I know that the radio has to work for the others to work so my question is should I check the fuse or something else when I look at the car. Isn't there a procedure you go through when you do a brake job on these cars so the light goes out, like disconnecting the battery? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Prob had a sensor wire knocked loose during the service. or they did a poor job and didn't flush the fluid. At that age I would hope it had two flushes.

The external amp for the radio is most likely Kaput. Check the fuse to be sure it is not so simple. My 95 amp went out multiple times - I think it was due to the Lincoln phone routing through an underpowered amp.

Hey Frat, Thanks for the info. it'll help when I look at it Saturday, the asking price is $3000.00 which I thought was great after seeing the pics. she sent to me. I think it's a decent price for a 60,000 Mark as long as it checks out.:steering
