abs trac lit
#2
The most common cause is the abs harness itself. There is a technical service bulletin for this problem. The harness may look fine from the outside but breaks inside. A lot of the time the problem will come and go. Is your scanner abs capable? I got my car scanned for free at Autozone. The most common failure is the front passenger side then front drivers. Its an easy diy fix and under $40 if you order the harness online

Thanks for your reply. Gonna try Autozone. My son`s scanner is fully capable. Would have cleared code but unit has been stolen. He paid over 3 grand for it. I did repair a broken wire and it fixed the problem but the indicators are still lit.

That bites about the scanner. Will homeowners insurance cover it? When I went to Autozone the code actually said it was a bad hub. But since the harness was bad the scanner couldn't talk to it of course. I used an ohmmeter to test my harness. Clipped away a tiny piece of the covering far up the harness. Sometimes if would test good but I could make it fault by flexing the harness. Some people clear their codes by disconnecting the battery for a bit.

Tried the disconnect. abs and trac still lit. Harness is good. Hubs are new. This car drives me nuts. Have a problem with body module too. Dealer couldn`t duplicate symptom when it was under warranty of course. Gonna see if Autozone will clear dash. Thanks!
