My brake actuator is running constantly. The abs light is on. The only way to stop it from running is to disconnect the ground on the Battery. Someone mentioned it might be the relay. Where is it located at? Are there any other indicators that I could use to see if that is the issue. Where is the Relay located at. I looked at the fender well fuse box and the fuse panel on the drivers side inside the cabin. Where is the relay at for the actuator?

The relay is inside the black box in front of the ABS unit.

The relay is actually a part of the ABS actuator, not in the engine bay fuse block with the other relays. There's a black plastic cover on the top of the actuator that covers it.

Thanks..I found the box. I took the cover off the actuator and attempted to shift the relay. As I did the relay reconnected properly and the actuator began to operate properly. I attempted to by a replacement at the auto parts store using their systems and they could not find the part, nor could they find it using the Nippon part number. Is this part available?

I just bought this Q45. It is in great shape, Black with 155,000 miles. I really like this car and want to keep it going.
