LOL! Man,,,, I've seen something just like that before. Good find!

That said,,, The 1214 DTC usually isn't the result of a dirty ground but, if its compromised bad enough the RELAY inside the EBTCM was most likely running under voltage and that could have been causing the 1214 DTC.

Keep an eye on the issue and if it returns, you should remove the module and repair the relay that causes this issue or repair the printed circuit solder joints that are sometimes cracked. If you don't do circuit repairs, send it to ABS FIXER.

Hey I went from a constant active handling and abs light to no lights and no codes so I'm chalking it up as a win for now. I will be in touch with ABS if I have any other issues out of it. I do electronics/robotics/plc wiring and programming all day but I'll send my stuff off and let someone else do it properly. Thanks again bill
