Default C5 ABS Traction System Message




I just installed a fresh engine into my C5 and now have traction system fault codes. I have an unknown connector on the wiring harness that comes from the right side of my C5 near where the outside air temp sensor is. I don’t see any obvious locations where it may have been connected. I have ABS and Service Traction System warnings displayed on the cluster. Does anyone have any ideas about where it went?

Hood light work? What codes do you have?

It's definitely not the ECBM connector as they look like this:

I’m getting TC codes c1221H, c1242H, c1283H and some random ldcm and rdcm codes. I’m pretty sure the door control module codes will clear themselves out eventually. The TCS codes are left , right wheel sensors and I think the yaw sensor code.

And they're all history codes? No Cs with those?

Clear and report back.
