Thank you so much. This is my current situation with my Chevy Equinox 2016 that happened today. I panicked and rushed to a local repair shop for a diagnostic and got a quote for $800 to replace the ABS module 🥲🥲. My heart dropped from that shocker. So I resorted to Googling the issue and your RUclips video popped up for the reset trick so I will definitely try that in the morning. If not, I will refer back to this specific video for additional help. Thank you tons. I will post an updated comment if all is successful either way.🙏🏾

Thank you for this video. I have a unique problem that has stumped 3 mechanics and at least 2 really good computer coders.. My truck (2008 Chevy Express 1500 Cargo Van) had a problem that was traced to the throttle body harness. It was crimped. Replaced and 4 new tire sensors as well. Problem I experienced was check engine light and van putt'd & sputtered. Towed to mechanic and above fixes. Since then (3 months) intermittent ABS/Emergency brake light comes on and stays on for either a couple hours or all day. I have since noticed the check engine light periodically coming on at the same time. It eventually goes out, as do the other 2 lights. Today, I had to be towed. The van was showing signs of putt'n & sputtering while sitting idle. All the lights mentioned were on. My last stop I noticed the van felt as if it wanted to surge slightly while in gear and brakes applied. The speedometer was fluctuating up and down as well. Once under power the check engine light started flashing and I lost power. After shutting engine off and starting again...check engine light solid. Once under power for less than 1 minute...check engine light began flashing and loss of power. Mechanic is stumped. Any chance you've encountered this situation? Kim D.

Greaat Great video........... I love youtube - SO educational. This Video was concise clear sooo helpful. Thank you to all you guys/gals for educating the rest of us.
Great presentation. The control circuits on these ABS systems are typically low voltage, low amperage, which means you need to check the ABS Module grounds after you check the fuses, or check the separate voltage values either at the wheels yourself, or the voltages coming into the ABS module while a second person helps you by spinning each separate wheel one-at-a-time, but at a uniform rate. As I understand these systems, the interaction between magnetic part of the sensor assembly and the notches in the rotating wheel on the hub assembly generates the voltage measured as the wheel turns. Trucks are usually exposed to harsher conditions than cars, and exposure of the wheel sensors and connectors to water, sea water at the beach, salted roads, etc. over the years can result in degraded sensors at the wheels, or poor or corroded grounds or bad connections where the system wires connect to the push-on or screw-on connectors. Any of these issues can cause voltage variations that prevent the ABS system from knowing whether or not all 4 wheels are rotating at substantially the same speed, and if the signals aren't the same, the ABS light comes on. The profit margin between replacing the ABS Module and the sensors and sensor wiring on 4 wheels and bleeding or replacing the brake fluid is about $1,000 to 1,500 more than doing the checks he recommended, plus checking the grounds. The ABS module can be replaced with a new one, if necessary, without replacing the valves it is attached to, but it is likely it will have to be re-programmed for your specific vehicle. Programming Specs are often available online, but require special equipment. The alternative is sending a defective ABS module to a specialty shop which can repair the old one, and do any required programming. Costs vary, but usually much cheaper than having a new one programmed and installed - unless you have a shop that does this locally, it can take about ten days to send it and get it back, due to shipping times. P.S. The white illuminated board you have behind you in your videos is interesting, but it leaves your face in the shadows. Viewers like to see faces; something for you to consider.

Thank you, thank you and thank you for making the comments on having a secondary support for a jacked up vehicle. I see so many vids of people working under a vehicle with only one hydraulic support. Especially do not trust a hydraulic jack. My engineer dad and military training drilled this into me for years. It is a golden rule of working on heavy items. A set of jack stands is a cheap safegaurd and way cheaper than a hospital visit or a funeral.The video content on the troubleshooting was great.

That's excellent. I ll try all of these and see if the ABS and break light go off on my Toyota Prius V 2013 . I changed my break pads and the light is still on . thank you. I subscribed
Overall good video, only one point that I have issue with. The two block fuses are not dealer only and can be purchased at most parts stores and even most Wal-Marts in the automotive section.
Wow just have to say. Props for trying to help as many people as possible in the comments. Like wow you’re amazing dude. If you’re still answering questions, I have one. So my car has had the traction light on for a bit, but sometimes when I’m driving, abs and break lights turn on. Also, my car just started moving the speed diameter up and down in the middle of driving. The car feels perfectly fine, but, kinda scare about this symptoms. Already took it too a shop, but they couldn’t fix the problem and I have nooo idea what it might be. I am willing to pay for a abs module but idk if that’ll be the problem
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Let’s get this figured out. A few things to do. 1. Verify all 4 tire pressure reading are set to manufacturers recommended psi. Believe it or not, low tire pressure can trigger abs in newer modern vehicles. 2. If you live in snowy areas, snow, ice, water, & moisture can sneak into abs sensor electrical connection points. This leads to abs turning on. In this case, disconnecting electrical connection and cleaning/drying will hopefully help. Let’s start there. 😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders thank you and yes. all tires are set to manufacturers specs. Also, idk when people say new because i have mostly owned old cars lol. The car having this problem is my 2012 Dodge Avenger and i live in Arizona where the lowest we get is 40F and a high of 118. So maybe the second step would be ruled out? or would you still recommend me checking it out? Also have switched most of the fuses in the fuze box. Now, i didnt touch those big square fuzes found in the box (sorry dont know the mechanic lingo lol)
@@MooseX2012 Thanks for the reply & is your ABS light illuminated on instrument cluster? If yes, you may want to visit your local AutoZone & have then read your ABS error codes. They do this for free. Obtaining the error codes will hopefully help pinpoint the part causing your issues.

This is very good tutorial on abs light on. My question is am rx 300,1999 model having same abs light on and speedometer not working what can I do pls but the transmission gear still working.
Great video. Very clear and concise. I have a 2009 F 250 and my ABS light comes on intermittently. There doesn’t seem to be any pattern to it. The brakes are working fine without the ABS. I bought a Blue driver scanner and I’m getting code C1096 Pump Motor Open Circuit. I’m going to dive in on this next week, but was wondering if because it is intermittent, do you have any insights?
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Let’s try something. We recommend filling all four of your tires back up to its proper psi. See if this registers & runs off ABS light. Keep us posted. Enjoy your night! 😎👍🔧🔩

Brilliant bit of information. I had a passenger front sensor come up so it was replaced and one 15 minutes later after leaving the garage the ABS came on again and now it says the driver side rear sensor needs replacing. Could that be possible ? Or could it be the fuse or abs module ? Thanks
PERFECT video! My Mitsubishi outlander 2010 is recently showing ABS light issue. It is coming on and off on the dashboard. When it is on, then ACS off light turns on. The car is running well so far, no brake issue whatsoever with ABS light on. I have driven 5K+ miles with ABS light on. I got P1773 and C2116 codes. How serious is that?
Thanks for the info education on abs symptoms and possible causes creating abs light on dash. I'm trying to determine if the mechanic that told me my abs pump is failing is correct or not where as they said my coolant leak was coming from heater coil gear assembly but wasn't case and I paid $500 for that to be replaced and installed then that evening my abs light came on. I've bn spending money on repairing front suspension system. Have yet to replace engine mounts, brakes, and rear suspension as well as tires brakes and then eventually replace interior seating, steering wheel and center console gear shifter and compartment ..
Good morning, you are very welcome. ABS pump failure is not uncommon however if vehicle is less than 10 years old…it’s unlikely that the pump has failed. It may be as simple as a speed sensor however without hooking up OBD2 scanner, we can’t confidently say. Having a scanner will help pinpoint the exact part causing your issue.
Awesome information/tutorial, the only observation I want to make is that not all abs systems are the same there are different cars that have different abs systems.

Most fuse / relay blocks have a fuse pulling / insertion tool tucked away somewhere. Hard tools can easily break the fuse. But a great, easy video to follow. Thanks
Much easier to use needle nose pliers, very carefully as stated. Those little tools don't always work they great - especially in tight quarters. Use what works best for you.

Thank you. Great video. My old honda odyssey recently showed an ABS light on along with other lights. After stopping at traffic light, my car won't accelerate when pressing the gas pedal. Do you think that would be the only problem? What would be the expected cost to repair each individual issue vs changing the whole ABS unit together? Here in CA prices can vary so much, price gouging is so common. I recently brought a 2013 escalade to the shop and they told me my rotor and axel in the back wheels have to be replaced, and I paid $6.5K for it. I am scared to bring my car to any mechanic worrying they are going to ask me to pay $2K for this issue.
Good Show, Sir :) 2003 Toyota Camry ACV 36. ABS light playing up. It's supposed to stay on with key on? & turn off, after start? This one lights up & goes off before start. If it stays on till start, then it stays on. Computer says no codes. Wtf?
2009 Dodge caliber 2.0 ABS light came on. Lifted front end up and ran it to 50 mph and listened for bad bearing. Sounded fine both sides. Checked each back tire and turned by hand and all seemed fine for noise. Grabbed each tire and wiggled and evrything seems tight. Asked my son about the tire pressure and found that all the tires were at 25 to 27 psi. Filled all tires to 33 psi and we took it for a run. Guess what the abs light went out. Completely surprised me. Check your air pressure of the tires first. It was a very simple fix............................................

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge of vehicle repair with the world. My ABS light has been on (steady) since I had my tires replaced 3wks ago, getting ready for winter. For two days, the the ABS activates, showing a car skidding icon (on completely dry asphalt here) and the gas pedal loses pressure. It activates every time I have to start it up (minimum of 6x daily) and today it happened while I was facing oncoming traffic. Can you please tell me which of the 4 reasons explains the issue my 07' Lincoln Navigator L is having? Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Let’s get this figured out. You mentioned tire service recently. Believe it or not, low tire pressure can trigger ABS light. We recommend checking the sidewall of your tire for the proper psi and filling your tires to that psi. Go for a test drive and see if this turns off your ABS. Keep us posted, us fellow DIY’ers need to stick together! 😎👍🔧🔩
I had a blow out on Tuesday. I ended up replacing all tires. I have the same issue that you described. The gas pedal acts up once when I start the vehicle, then it is OK the rest of the drive. Did you get it figured out?
@@BatmanVMMA Thanks for watching & it’s very possible that your blown tire damaged an ABS sensor. We recommend having your ABS error codes read by an OBD scanner. This will help us pinpoint the exact part causing your issue. AutoZone will read error codes for 100% free. 😎👍🔧🔩
@@BatmanVMMA please can you update this thread when you check the codes given. Currently in EXACTLY same situation. Blown tires > tires replaced > then ABS light.
@@charleseke7341 I used a code reader and there was a code. I think it was C0055 or something like that. The code reader told me the rear passenger tire speed sensor something something... I forgot exactly what it said, but I cleared it and it hasn't come back on. When I inspected the sensor, the blow out rubbed off some of the plastic coating on the wiring. I used some shrink wrap stuff on it. Hope this helps.

Great video, I have a Ford explorer sport Trac 2008 and I recently replaced my tires of the vehicle and it recently started to turn on my abs light once I speed up to 15 mph, breaks work perfectly fine with no issue so I'm stumped as to why, I'm unsure if wheel unalignment may also have something to do with it.
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. You mentioned you just recently replaced tires. Believe it or not, it may be as simple as bringing your air pressure inside your tire up to the recommended max psi. Please keep us posted.
I have all three lights on: ABS / BRAKE / ESC , mine is a 07 hyundai santa Fe , but the main concern is as soon as I connect the battery terminal I can hear an Strong noise coming from my ABS module/pump, is like the ABS is active/vibrating, is there a chance for one of the sensors are activating the module in that way, even without the ignition key inserted??? have you an idea about what is going on, or test I can do? thanks in advance!!!
I have a 2001 Toyota Camry, and my abs light goes off whenever I hit bumps on the road and my car brakes stutters. My car has already turned off completely due to this problem. Is something loose in my car
Just stumbled upon your video, good stuff. Recently got a DTC 66-1 (Brake Pressure Sensor Failure) and 98-1 (ECU Unmatched) for my 2000 Acura RL. Got any tips on how to fix this kind of stuff?
Gordon So Thanks for watching & sharing your comment. Have you performed a battery reset test to see if it was just a sporadic error? Unplug Black negative Cable from your battery and leave unplugged for a minimum of 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, resecure negative cable to battery.

Hey Michael I have a question you might be able to help me with... I have a 97 Dakota my brake pedal gets stiff and hard to press when I am coming to a stop but it doesn't happen every time and my abs light isn't on... do you have any idea what's the problem? Please
Hi thanks for the good review I have the same problems plus hand brake light and the motor for abs on even after turn of the engine .i have to unplug abs to shut it off.?what can you say about that.thanks
I could argue there’s FAR more than 4 causes of an ABS malfunction. Caliper pistons, low brake fluid level/fluid leak, intermittent connectivity with either power or ground wires, low battery voltage, bent rims or fix-a-flat, the abs module might need re-calibration, bad MAF or MAP or crank or cam sensors….the list goes on and on and on…..it’s a sophisticated system.
Could you tell me why my ABS LIGHT CAME ON AFTER TAKING MY CAR IN FOR REPAIRS....THEY SAID THEY PUT ON A NEW SUPENSION RACK. PUT A FRONT GASKET ON......THEY ARGUE ITS MY WORD AGAINST THEIR MECHANIC.... MY LIGHT WASNT ON WHEN I TOOK IT IN
@@lajunecrockett2381 some ABS systems read sensors on the suspensions system as well. If that’s the case then every time the car is lifted off the ground the ABS light will turn on. Usually knowing which ABS code is causing the light to come on is the first step.
Thank you for the clear video, precise explanation & minimal theatrics 👌. I am based in South Africa and attempting to resolve a 2 year long problem. Vehicle is a 2005 Renault Megane 225 bhp Sport. ABS light came on , with concomitant loss of traction control, speedometer, cruise control.At the time , OBD revealed only right front abs still active. New Rotors with pressed wheel bearings having abs magnetic strip AND new ABS sensors have been fitted. OBD scans all show front right abs still active, the other 3 not. Can a 4-channel abs module fail on 3 channels ? What other possible causes should I be looking for ?
Trevor Grantham Thanks for watching & it’s possible. How is your fluid level looking inside your brake fluid reservoir? If the fluid is outside the normal fill parameters... meaning too low or too high... it will cause your symptoms as well. Keep us posted. 😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders hi Michael. I carried out a continuity test on the abs harness from the point of the abs sensor connection at each wheel back to the abs module plug, and all were fine. I then bought a 2nd hand pump module (came with 6 mth guarantee😊) and , without removing the original from the car, just plugged it in to check the effect on the cluster lights. They all went out. I've since replaced the abs pump module and all is well 👍🏽 - speedo, cruise control, speed limiter all now funtioning
Trevor Grantham That is awesome & we really appreciate you sharing your update Trevor. This is great news & can be helpful to our fellow DIY’ers. Sounds like you’re back up and running. 😎👍🔧🔩
Don’t forget about BUS problems! All sensors, fuses and modules can be good but a bus / electrical issue is always possible. Can test that issue through testing for power through you’re harness or splice packs!

Hello, I have a 2005 Chevy Colorado, and I have a ABS fault, traction control fault, stability control fault, all going off and has shut down my traction control and ABS. I have checked the rings, replaced the sensors, cleaned all connectors, and checked fuses. I got the truck from my brother who has had problems with the abs and traction control ever since he bought the truck. He actually had wheels lock up on him driving down the highway, after replacing the sensors it was running fine, then when we were driving we noticed one wheel started dragging and the front right wheel started grabbing spirraticaly. We cleaned the rings and sensors and it stopped but then suddenly threw 3 faults and we can't figure out why, please help have no idea where to turn.

Question. My 1992 LT1 Corvette , has a problem. For the life of me I cannot spin or smoke my tires. The emergency brake warning light is always on. So I checked The brake fluid which is full,I changed all four of the brake pads on the entire car and the light is still on I also checked the wheel sensors some of them had rust buildup on them but I cleaned them going back in so why the hell cant I spend the tires on a Corvette. What is the use of owning a Corvette if you can’t smoke the tires that’s my problem I’ve been building dragon jeans for my older cars but I can’t figure out the brake light is unbelievable but he’s got an idea what it is let me know because I don’t see nothing on RUclips about it I even called the dealership and they won’t tell me they want me to bring the car in to take my money that shit ain’t going to happen. When I bought this Corvette I didn’t even realize until I lifted the hood after I got home there’s a Optispark distributor what kind of crap is that what’s a matter with the old Style ones on top of the back of the engine.

ABS light on my 1987 Vette is now on after the mechanic installed new front brakes due to it jerking to the left when braking. This did not correct the problem. He said the ABS system was bad. I found a used one on eBay. This still didn’t solve the problem. The light is still on.and the ABS is not working. Any input from you is appreciated.
I THINK THEY GAVE US ALL THESE SENSORS TO DRIVE YOU CRAZY SOME TIMES. BUT STAY SAFE EVERYONE WITH YOUR PROJECT . JUST GOT ME A 96 SONOMA HIGHRIDER 4X4 AND I HAVE THIS PROBLEM.
would like to know why the u0401 and c056e codes are present and replaced the control module and the sensor under the truck reprogramed but still abs light and these codes can you help
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. This may sound funny however we recommend verifying all 4 of your tires have the proper psi in them. We recommend filling them to the manufactures recommended max which can be found on the sidewall of your tires. By chance do you know when the last time your suspension was aligned buy a professional shop? Believe it or not, something so simple as unbalanced tires can trip your ABS system. 😎👍🔧🔩

Thank you for this video.
I have a unique problem that has stumped 3 mechanics and at least 2 really good computer coders..
My truck (2008 Chevy Express 1500 Cargo Van) had a problem that was traced to the throttle body harness. It was crimped. Replaced and 4 new tire sensors as well.
Problem I experienced was check engine light and van putt'd & sputtered. Towed to mechanic and above fixes.
Since then (3 months) intermittent ABS/Emergency brake light comes on and stays on for either a couple hours or all day. I have since noticed the check engine light periodically coming on at the same time. It eventually goes out, as do the other 2 lights.
Today, I had to be towed. The van was showing signs of putt'n & sputtering while sitting idle. All the lights mentioned were on. My last stop I noticed the van felt as if it wanted to surge slightly while in gear and brakes applied. The speedometer was fluctuating up and down as well. Once under power the check engine light started flashing and I lost power. After shutting engine off and starting again...check engine light solid. Once under power for less than 1 minute...check engine light began flashing and loss of power.
Mechanic is stumped. Any chance you've encountered this situation?

Great presentation.
The control circuits on these ABS systems are typically low voltage, low amperage, which means you need to check the ABS Module grounds after you check the fuses, or check the separate voltage values either at the wheels yourself, or the voltages coming into the ABS module while a second person helps you by spinning each separate wheel one-at-a-time, but at a uniform rate. As I understand these systems, the interaction between magnetic part of the sensor assembly and the notches in the rotating wheel on the hub assembly generates the voltage measured as the wheel turns. Trucks are usually exposed to harsher conditions than cars, and exposure of the wheel sensors and connectors to water, sea water at the beach, salted roads, etc. over the years can result in degraded sensors at the wheels, or poor or corroded grounds or bad connections where the system wires connect to the push-on or screw-on connectors. Any of these issues can cause voltage variations that prevent the ABS system from knowing whether or not all 4 wheels are rotating at substantially the same speed, and if the signals aren't the same, the ABS light comes on.
The profit margin between replacing the ABS Module and the sensors and sensor wiring on 4 wheels and bleeding or replacing the brake fluid is about $1,000 to 1,500 more than doing the checks he recommended, plus checking the grounds. The ABS module can be replaced with a new one, if necessary, without replacing the valves it is attached to, but it is likely it will have to be re-programmed for your specific vehicle. Programming Specs are often available online, but require special equipment. The alternative is sending a defective ABS module to a specialty shop which can repair the old one, and do any required programming. Costs vary, but usually much cheaper than having a new one programmed and installed - unless you have a shop that does this locally, it can take about ten days to send it and get it back, due to shipping times.
P.S. The white illuminated board you have behind you in your videos is interesting, but it leaves your face in the shadows. Viewers like to see faces; something for you to consider.

Thank you, thank you and thank you for making the comments on having a secondary support for a jacked up vehicle. I see so many vids of people working under a vehicle with only one hydraulic support. Especially do not trust a hydraulic jack. My engineer dad and military training drilled this into me for years. It is a golden rule of working on heavy items. A set of jack stands is a cheap safegaurd and way cheaper than a hospital visit or a funeral.The video content on the troubleshooting was great.

Wow just have to say. Props for trying to help as many people as possible in the comments. Like wow you’re amazing dude. If you’re still answering questions, I have one.
So my car has had the traction light on for a bit, but sometimes when I’m driving, abs and break lights turn on. Also, my car just started moving the speed diameter up and down in the middle of driving. The car feels perfectly fine, but, kinda scare about this symptoms. Already took it too a shop, but they couldn’t fix the problem and I have nooo idea what it might be.
I am willing to pay for a abs module but idk if that’ll be the problem
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Let’s get this figured out. A few things to do.
1. Verify all 4 tire pressure reading are set to manufacturers recommended psi. Believe it or not, low tire pressure can trigger abs in newer modern vehicles.
2. If you live in snowy areas, snow, ice, water, & moisture can sneak into abs sensor electrical connection points. This leads to abs turning on. In this case, disconnecting electrical connection and cleaning/drying will hopefully help.
Let’s start there. 😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders thank you and yes. all tires are set to manufacturers specs. Also, idk when people say new because i have mostly owned old cars lol. The car having this problem is my 2012 Dodge Avenger and i live in Arizona where the lowest we get is 40F and a high of 118. So maybe the second step would be ruled out? or would you still recommend me checking it out?
Also have switched most of the fuses in the fuze box. Now, i didnt touch those big square fuzes found in the box (sorry dont know the mechanic lingo lol)
@@MooseX2012
Thanks for the reply & is your ABS light illuminated on instrument cluster? If yes, you may want to visit your local AutoZone & have then read your ABS error codes. They do this for free.
Obtaining the error codes will hopefully help pinpoint the part causing your issues.

Great video. Very clear and concise. I have a 2009 F 250 and my ABS light comes on intermittently. There doesn’t seem to be any pattern to it. The brakes are working fine without the ABS. I bought a Blue driver scanner and I’m getting code C1096 Pump Motor Open Circuit. I’m going to dive in on this next week, but was wondering if because it is intermittent, do you have any insights?
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Let’s try something. We recommend filling all four of your tires back up to its proper psi. See if this registers & runs off ABS light. Keep us posted.

PERFECT video! My Mitsubishi outlander 2010 is recently showing ABS light issue. It is coming on and off on the dashboard. When it is on, then ACS off light turns on. The car is running well so far, no brake issue whatsoever with ABS light on. I have driven 5K+ miles with ABS light on. I got P1773 and C2116 codes. How serious is that?
Thanks for the info education on abs symptoms and possible causes creating abs light on dash. I'm trying to determine if the mechanic that told me my abs pump is failing is correct or not where as they said my coolant leak was coming from heater coil gear assembly but wasn't case and I paid $500 for that to be replaced and installed then that evening my abs light came on. I've bn spending money on repairing front suspension system.
Have yet to replace engine mounts, brakes, and rear suspension as well as tires brakes and then eventually replace interior seating, steering wheel and center console gear shifter and compartment ..
Good morning, you are very welcome. ABS pump failure is not uncommon however if vehicle is less than 10 years old…it’s unlikely that the pump has failed.
It may be as simple as a speed sensor however without hooking up OBD2 scanner, we can’t confidently say.
Having a scanner will help pinpoint the exact part causing your issue.
Thanks for the info 🙂

Thank you. Great video. My old honda odyssey recently showed an ABS light on along with other lights. After stopping at traffic light, my car won't accelerate when pressing the gas pedal. Do you think that would be the only problem? What would be the expected cost to repair each individual issue vs changing the whole ABS unit together? Here in CA prices can vary so much, price gouging is so common. I recently brought a 2013 escalade to the shop and they told me my rotor and axel in the back wheels have to be replaced, and I paid $6.5K for it. I am scared to bring my car to any mechanic worrying they are going to ask me to pay $2K for this issue.
might be the computer
Good Show, Sir :) 2003 Toyota Camry ACV 36. ABS light playing up. It's supposed to stay on with key on? & turn off, after start?
This one lights up & goes off before start. If it stays on till start, then it stays on. Computer says no codes. Wtf?
2009 Dodge caliber 2.0 ABS light came on. Lifted front end up and ran it to 50 mph and listened for bad bearing. Sounded fine both sides. Checked each back tire and turned by hand and all seemed fine for noise. Grabbed each tire and wiggled and evrything seems tight. Asked my son about the tire pressure and found that all the tires were at 25 to 27 psi. Filled all tires to 33 psi and we took it for a run. Guess what the abs light went out. Completely surprised me.
Check your air pressure of the tires first. It was a very simple fix............................................

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge of vehicle repair with the world. My ABS light has been on (steady) since I had my tires replaced 3wks ago, getting ready for winter. For two days, the the ABS activates, showing a car skidding icon (on completely dry asphalt here) and the gas pedal loses pressure. It activates every time I have to start it up (minimum of 6x daily) and today it happened while I was facing oncoming traffic. Can you please tell me which of the 4 reasons explains the issue my 07' Lincoln Navigator L is having? Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Let’s get this figured out.
You mentioned tire service recently. Believe it or not, low tire pressure can trigger ABS light.
We recommend checking the sidewall of your tire for the proper psi and filling your tires to that psi.
Go for a test drive and see if this turns off your ABS. Keep us posted, us fellow DIY’ers need to stick together!

@@charleseke7341 I used a code reader and there was a code. I think it was C0055 or something like that. The code reader told me the rear passenger tire speed sensor something something... I forgot exactly what it said, but I cleared it and it hasn't come back on. When I inspected the sensor, the blow out rubbed off some of the plastic coating on the wiring. I used some shrink wrap stuff on it. Hope this helps.

I could argue there’s FAR more than 4 causes of an ABS malfunction. Caliper pistons, low brake fluid level/fluid leak, intermittent connectivity with either power or ground wires, low battery voltage, bent rims or fix-a-flat, the abs module might need re-calibration, bad MAF or MAP or crank or cam sensors….the list goes on and on and on…..it’s a sophisticated system.
Definitely, we appreciate you watching and sharing this. Any and all helpful info is greatly appreciated. 😎👍
“4 most COMMON”… if you are arguing which 4 were chosen, then specify that.
Otherwise work on your reading comprehension.
@@aaroncalhoun9825 technically you’re correct. I was trying to shed a light on the 4,000 other non-common causes of ABS malfunction.
Could you tell me why my ABS LIGHT CAME ON AFTER TAKING MY CAR IN FOR REPAIRS....THEY SAID THEY PUT ON A NEW SUPENSION RACK. PUT A FRONT GASKET ON......THEY ARGUE ITS MY WORD AGAINST THEIR MECHANIC.... MY LIGHT WASNT ON WHEN I TOOK IT IN
@@lajunecrockett2381 some ABS systems read sensors on the suspensions system as well. If that’s the case then every time the car is lifted off the ground the ABS light will turn on. Usually knowing which ABS code is causing the light to come on is the first step.
Thank you for the clear video, precise explanation & minimal theatrics 👌. I am based in South Africa and attempting to resolve a 2 year long problem. Vehicle is a 2005 Renault Megane 225 bhp Sport. ABS light came on , with concomitant loss of traction control, speedometer, cruise control.At the time , OBD revealed only right front abs still active. New Rotors with pressed wheel bearings having abs magnetic strip AND new ABS sensors have been fitted. OBD scans all show front right abs still active, the other 3 not. Can a 4-channel abs module fail on 3 channels ? What other possible causes should I be looking for ?
Trevor Grantham
Thanks for watching & it’s possible. How is your fluid level looking inside your brake fluid reservoir? If the fluid is outside the normal fill parameters... meaning too low or too high... it will cause your symptoms as well.

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders hi Michael. I carried out a continuity test on the abs harness from the point of the abs sensor connection at each wheel back to the abs module plug, and all were fine. I then bought a 2nd hand pump module (came with 6 mth guarantee😊) and , without removing the original from the car, just plugged it in to check the effect on the cluster lights. They all went out. I've since replaced the abs pump module and all is well 👍🏽 - speedo, cruise control, speed limiter all now funtioning

Hello, I have a 2005 Chevy Colorado, and I have a ABS fault, traction control fault, stability control fault, all going off and has shut down my traction control and ABS. I have checked the rings, replaced the sensors, cleaned all connectors, and checked fuses. I got the truck from my brother who has had problems with the abs and traction control ever since he bought the truck. He actually had wheels lock up on him driving down the highway, after replacing the sensors it was running fine, then when we were driving we noticed one wheel started dragging and the front right wheel started grabbing spirraticaly. We cleaned the rings and sensors and it stopped but then suddenly threw 3 faults and we can't figure out why, please help have no idea where to turn.

Question. My 1992 LT1 Corvette , has a problem. For the life of me I cannot spin or smoke my tires. The emergency brake warning light is always on. So I checked The brake fluid which is full,I changed all four of the brake pads on the entire car and the light is still on I also checked the wheel sensors some of them had rust buildup on them but I cleaned them going back in so why the hell cant I spend the tires on a Corvette. What is the use of owning a Corvette if you can’t smoke the tires that’s my problem I’ve been building dragon jeans for my older cars but I can’t figure out the brake light is unbelievable but he’s got an idea what it is let me know because I don’t see nothing on RUclips about it I even called the dealership and they won’t tell me they want me to bring the car in to take my money that shit ain’t going to happen. When I bought this Corvette I didn’t even realize until I lifted the hood after I got home there’s a Optispark distributor what kind of crap is that what’s a matter with the old Style ones on top of the back of the engine.

Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. This may sound funny however we recommend verifying all 4 of your tires have the proper psi in them.
We recommend filling them to the manufactures recommended max which can be found on the sidewall of your tires. By chance do you know when the last time your suspension was aligned buy a professional shop? Believe it or not, something so simple as unbalanced tires can trip your ABS system.

Do you think covering the connector in the wheel well with grease would do any good to help protect it from moisture. Seems like a bad place for them to put it

Thanks for watching & it’s possible...🤔
We haven’t tried that before.

Dielectric grease if you do
I just had to replace both wheel hubs and the rotors, pads, and calipers on my 08 Colorado and the ABS and Fault light are still on. How do I get them to go out or do they go out on their own after driving it?
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Below is a link to a video that shows removing pads & rotors.

Recently bought a 2010 charger sxt an when I make a sharp or full left turn esp/bad light pops on every time about after being started. I've researched it some an found quite a few articles of the same problem either the dodge brand. Noticed also my driver's side front rotor has some signs of pads being worn down to low an pitted it. Also wondering if having a different size tire on the driver's side rear would throw the lights. an toms sensor comes on
sharp turns will trigger the esp(abs). Will reset in a week.
I need to completely clean out my brake lines from contaminated fluid. I want to blow break cleaner through the lines but will it mess up my abs? What to do? On a 2004 civic, discovered daughter put power steering fluid in the master cylinder.
Thanks for watching & we appreciate you reaching out to us. You can purchase a flush kit at your local AutoZone which will come with directions on how to properly flush system as well as doing it in a way that protects your ABS system. You may want to contact them & ask if they have one in stock prior to driving there. Keep us posted.
