plug and play.

The front harness, male one end female the other, is plug and play but there is a female on the body that has to be cut off and replaced. You can try bending the worn contacts back to the correct position with a scribe.

Funny that anytime i have a problem I can guarantee someone else has already had the problem and fixed it...

I also have a '97 w/ Stock braking system, and get the TCS/ABS lights occasionally when i hit a bump... But I only get P1225...

What sensor is that? So i don't have to pull off all my wheels...

Have a 30 year old daughter - sorry can't offer you any hope that it gets better - remember, they are in training to become someone's wife.

hey guys,

I just searched for this and looks like I found what I need. The only thing I'm missing is the EXACT location of the sensor. I just got done washing and fixing my car this afternoon. Backed it up in the driveway, hit something, and then "Service ABS, TC, & HC soon" warnings. Anybody have any pictures? I'll take a look tomorrow and see if I can find any loose connections.

Sorry: My code was C1225 H C Should be the Left sensor, right(Driver's side)

TIA,
Josh

Default abs t/c lights and codes

One jack clips on each front rotor retainer s/b grey in color easy clip
off. Follow wires and you will find same jack clipped into male laying on the frame heldwith push pin. Just pivet pull out , center all female pins
clean with wd40 and reconnect.
Good luck

I am a bit confused as to what my actual problem is. Whenever I hit a bump in the road, my service traction, abs, and active handling warnings light up. When I turn the car off the go away, but should i hit a bump in the road or feel the car shimmy while driving they turn back on. I asked the guy that services my car about it and he said it would be $1300+ to fix. I have perused this forum to see if anyone had a more concise answer and what I find are 2 threads running almost similar, but not quite the same, issues. There is this thread that sounds most similar to the problem I am having and another long running thread that details issues almost everyone is having with their EBCM and PBMV (hope I have the acronyms correct). For those of you having the latter issues...are your warning lights always on? The EBCM and PBMV problems seem to be very expensive fixes. Trying to get to the bottom of the issue with the least expense. I'm sure the money I possibly could save could be put to use on some much coveted Mod. I have a 2000 MN6 coupe. Thanks for your helpful replies.
