Kevin. I contacted you a couple of months ago about my parking brake. Dexron fluid was low and after refill it started to work again. So to save an expensive tow job I built myself a hydraulic pump system to bypass if I ever had trouble again. Went on a 1200 miles trek Last month, no problem. Today we left home at 10AM for a 1000 miles trip. We stopped for lunch and when we tried to leave, parking brake is not disengaging. I had watched and saved all your related videos and saved th on my phone. Pulled the video up, watched the first few minutes and swapped the ABS relay with the Auto Park and we were back on the road in 20 minutes. Thanks so much for the videos and explanation on how this works. Without you, I would have been waiting for a expensive tow to some place that may not even have had the knowledge to fix this. Thanks again!!
2007 W24 ABS light came on but the rest of the brake system was working fine. I eventually traced the problem to small pieces of rust sticking to the end of the sensor. Once parked, I checked /cleaned the sensors and the light went out. The right hand front sensor had a build up of rust particles which reduced the gap! That was two years ago with no problem since. I appreciate your videos. Thank you. Derek
I have a 2006 Voyage 35A with the workhorse w24 and had the same problem with it. Replaced the same relay and fix it. Good information. Have a great day Ed
Good fix Kevin. Fairly common from what I recall. In RV parks, as the long term snowbirds prepared to head home, that was one problem. As a tech working on machines with banks of hundreds of those relays, we often pulled them and used a slightly abrasive 'burnishing tool' to clean the contacts.

We take two [month long] trips a year, Spring and Fall when families with kids are not present, interspersed with a few short weeks of 800 miles or less. Summer is relaxing in mild climate ABQ NM, as well as mild winters. I do all of my own maintenance, as do you.

Mornin Kevin, I love seeing new videos from you. I always learn something. Thank you so much. I don't want to hijack your thread but I couldn't help but notice the low frequency hum when you cranked up. My 2005 Adventurer has that same hum and I was concerned. I had a little smile when I heard yours. Any idea what we are hearing and is it a possible problem? Thanks again for your work in keeping us on the road.
We have always had that sound I be-leave its the power steering pump. And I think its normal. But to confirm the next time I have the fan belt removed I will start it up and see if the sound then goes away... STAY TUNED....
It does increase with RPM and seems to be the same once the engine is up to temp. I too suspect PSP so checked fluid level but all was well there. Turning wheel lock to lock did not seem to change it. Like yours, it has always been there[ three years]. Thanks for the reply
Mine stopped suddenly ,, you can always swap relay with another that has the same part number to see if that helps. This Video may help ruclips.net/video/m6vauH8embc/видео.html

Thanks for commenting, and for watching. Do you own a W24 Workhorse ?
