Hi blackwell and thank you for the comment. On this system as I’m sure with
other vehicles, once the ignition is turned off and back on, the ABS is
back in an active state providing the problem is not there again. You won’t
have any active codes, but there still be the history codes. As you may
remember in the first video, the scanner didn’t have any DTCs for the ABS,
but there was the ABS history codes which is what I was following up on.
Thanks again blackwell…
Thanks for the comment Dave! As you may know, a lot of professionals would
have just changed the wheel bearing/hub sensor without even diagnosing
anything. The wheel bearing/hub for this runs about $100.00, but until I
can see what’s the actual problem, I’m not going to replace anything. The
wiring issue was high on my list after I saw the signal. After several
attempts of watching bias, moving harness and then nothing. Early on in my
tests, I did spray the EBCM connector and sensor connectors.
I was talking about the section of harness leading to the sensor its about
three feet long you can get it from the dealer. sorry I wasn’t totally
clear. davewes
Thanks Jerry it is always tough when the symptoms are intermittent but a
well done video, and a well thought out approach. Is there any way to
reboot the abs system?
No problem David. The car hasn’t hiccupped once since I started looking at
it. I appreciate the advice on the harness. Thanks again…
That’s the frustrating thing about intermittent problems – I think
professionals encounter this all the time. I wouldn’t be surprised if some
shops would just replace the wheel speed sensor, though on this vehicle
that would be an expensive proposition. Do you think there may have been a
wiring connection problem? Thanks for a real world documentary.
