They have that safety feature on the system for a reason.
Dont worry i dont play video in unit.. BUT there is still some features that i like to adjust or see on the fly so it is needed....

Pulled all aftermarket system out this afternoon... Erased code and all comes back on...So i see that there is no communication of any sort on my install with the ABS system... Checked a little more with volt meter at ABS, and ECM since i cant communicate with it since it got worse.. So i went to a friend who has a shop and told him my diag is bad ABS. module and must of been a fluke...
So he tested everything and he comes up with same result's..
Electrical yuk.. Must of just been a fluke when it took a crap after radio install...
So i have a unit on the way....

YEA.. I got my used ABS unit in.. So i took the elec module off new used unit and installed it on mine.. YES, ABS light and E brake LIGHT are off now and my steering is back...
Anyone who has read any of this post will see that my abs problem started immediately when i installed new sterio head unit.. BUT it was all a fluke that it happened to go bad right then...

Yes it is all back together.... Not to go off subject, but when i unbolted the electric module from the ABS motor, i found out why mine went bad...
Brake fluid is getting into it.. So for rest of season ill run it with the used module on the orig leaking pump and swap out pump in the spring...
Another note would be is my car is a 2006, and i found a good used unit off ebay for 150.00 and it was off a 2007 and had same code on the outside, so i Didnt need anything programmed like some may think.
