Roo, I don't have a clue on the abs, but Trevor is good with electrics, he may chime in.

Regards the power windows, would you know if the car has had a leak into the interior, or if it ever was in a flood, even a shallow one?

The reason I ask is because the relay for the power windows is under the carpet on the floor. If it gets wet it can corrode the earth connections, then the electric windows don't work.

There is a hole in the carpet you can poke into to check, but in your case you may have to take out the seats, lift the carpet and check the electrical gear under there.

The problem is usually corroded earths not grounding, but possibly the relay/s may be toast.
