Coming home today the "brake" and "Anti-Lock" lights came on.
I was close to home so I popped the hood and have a buzzing sound coming from under the brake fluid reservoir.
There is a black pod (for lack of a better word)
that is hot to the touch and seems to be where the buzing is coming from.
What is it and is that my problem.
And ,, how to fix it if it is.
I am going to disconnect the battery and see if it will reset.
I also don't need a battery drain,,,
Thanks,

OK, so the battery disconnect didn't work so I found the plug for that part and unpluged it. Buzz is gone but what now?
What is that part and what does it do?

OK,, so once again what a great site!!!
I should ALWAYS look in the tech section before panicking!!!
The answer was there,, simple low on fluid,, or so it seems at this point,,
Thanks again for such a great site and tech section !!!!

Well, It turns out the relay is bad.
Ford part is discontinued and I'm having a hard time finding one.
Any ideas on where to go or a part number from a independent parts house?
Thanks,,,
