Hi! I've been trying to figure out how to solve my intermittent ABS-light-on, buzzing/whirring-sound-from-over-right-rear-wheel issue. I've had to disconnect my battery to stop it.

I've done a ton of searching in online forums and most people seem to conclude the ABS relay needs replacing, but when I look up the parts there are three possibilities: 47605-17V00, V01, or V03. Valve relay, motor relay... any insight which one? Or is it not possible to tell without a diagnostic test?

Also... is replacing the relay a simple matter of pulling it out and replacing, or...? Many thanks!

need an answer on this as well. My buzz is intermittent but does seem to stop on its own.

My mechanic just quoted me two hundred bucks to do the diagnostic... The replacement relay parts are only about $30-40 each, so it would make more sense just to go by trial and error at that point! I'd been under the impression that this could be figured out via electronic codes, but maybe I misinterpreted something I read in the forums...
