Problem : ABS light on
I have : read this forum for hours.
cleaned both front wheel sensors
cleaned rear sensor in diff housing
ohm'd front sensors, both ~ 1.04k ohms
ohm'd the rear sensor, can't remember right now but was within range
listed several places on this forum. ( I think ~ 1.5 to 2.0 k)
checked all fuses numerous times (actually did that first)
checked ABS diode (continuity one direction only)
checked relay in main dist box and the two in the secondary box OK!
disconnected battery several hours (while reading)
Vehicle was purchases used from individual several years ago and light was not on. I have replaced bearings, rotors, pad etc and everything was ok until recently. Also, since this is primarily driven around town cruise was never used and in my looking around found it was unplugged. I don't think this is causing the problem though. The odometer has quit working also (might be that gear fix)
I have checked the VSS in the tail-housing. Tried to get an ohm reading and found it to be a make/break as the gear is turned. Are there further test to be done?
Sorry this is so long but trying to bring ya'll up to speed (no pun here)
What else can I check? any info on checking the ABS control module?
Thanks
Tom
Edit: #1 rear ISO valve 6.5 meg ohms (dang) all the others were 5 - 8 ohms
Edit: #2 waiting for Equus 3160
