I have this issue although mines only at high speeds. Hope you find a answer to it

UmX

its so annoying

damascus1986

Unfortunately I think.it can be caused by allot of th I hs I think I need to change out my wheel hubs. A radiator bracket broke and it may have damaged some wiring as I speed up it would set of off it's better now but not gone. Agreed very annoying. I like to have abs lol

UmX

anyone else have input?

irok

are you running {TPMS} tire pressure sensors?

UmX

Yes.. i do have one that was replaced and they cant get it programmed until i get a new horn installed i guess.. least what discount told me.. can that cause the issue?

irok

no tpms can cause this issue and may apply one front brake at speed on its own.may put u in the wall

You can unplug your steering positioning sensor to bypass the system. Abs will work and traction control but it disables the AHS so it won't lock up your brakes at speed

UmX

so i got the tps set to the car.. abs light and traction control light still come on.. after one stop they were off but when i braked normally just lightly the abs kept coming on ... and now lights back on

UmX

wanted to mention its not throwing any codes either..

I there just wanted to know if you got it figured out.
I am having an issue as well when I brake lightly my service traction control comes on.


Thanks

The ABS will not report via ODB II ENGINE code scanners, you need a special scanner to read ABS codes, same with Air Bag issues.

Did you disturb any other components or electrical connectors while installing the line lock?
Does it pop up as soon as you start the car or as soon as you start moving?

UmX

95% of the time right as the car starts.. 1 out of say 15 starts they wont come on.. for electrical i went to the same line i used for switch power inside the car for me gauges...what type of scanner is needed? techII?

phipp85

Yes a tech 2 will show the code but there are other scanners that will as well. It just needs to be able to read ABS codes.
You haven't taken the steering shaft loose or wiggled any wires near the steering wheel position sensor?(under dash in-line with the steering column?

A damaged wheel bearing could also cause this(smashes the wheel speed sensor inside it).

i havent touched anything with the steering shaft since i did the motor.. and that was last year...i can look under the dash.. i bought this with the hopes it reads it

I spun my steering shaft accidentally one time while it was off and it caused AH/TC warnings because the steering wheel position sensor was seeing the wrong readings.
