Abs light

[DFendersExpy]

Well my Abs light came on. Have no idea which sensor it is. But as I was under the good look at the brake fluid. I notice this plastic tube just floating there. Looks like a Vacuum line but have no idea where it belongs too. Does anyone have a clue?

Here's another look at it

Correct, it's a vent line for the 4wd hubs in the front wheels.

About yous ABS Light. I was told by a mechanic I have used that an ABS light came on and go get the code read to see which wheel it is, that I had bad wheel bearing hubs and I lost the rollers for the bearing and ABS light stayed on because the ring on the wheel bearing housing had broke. Had to replace the wheel bearing assembly and clear the code and no more problems for now. Hope this helps Bruce 2003 Expy EB 4X4

Well it turned out to be the right rear sensor, I went to replace it and found out that the hub bearing had alot of play.. so instead of replacing the sensor i changed both rear hubs. Now after 8 hours of getting to old ones out and new ones in.. My advance traction light flashes and stays on... have no clue what it can be.... joy oh joy

My advance trac light is blinking as well, I have an appointment to get the abs re calibrated since that's the only way to stop it. From what I understand, it has to be a dealership to do the recalibration.

AGGGGGG I was hoping not to go there

 

[46L281GT]

i was trying to as well. Thankfully, i had just bought mine when it started so they're fitting the bill

 

[DFendersExpy]

made a call to the dealership of course they want to do a full diagnostics before they do anything.. which means more money more money more money..... go figure

My light is on as well. I know its a sensor but dont know which one. And my reader cant tell me. Took to my mechanic and his reader cant communicate with my abs module. So now i dont know if it is a sensor or and my abs module. Btw how hard is it to change and how expensive are the sensors?

 

[DFendersExpy]

If you can take off the rotors you will be able to get to the sensor

 

[DFendersExpy]

Well I got a snapon Solus Ultra scanner and I get a code C1998...

 

[46L281GT]

That's what I have. Got an appointment at the ford garage Wednesday morning to get it reflashed...

 

[46L281GT]

Well I dropped off my truck this morning and 160 dollars later, it works great! No issues thus far. price hurt, but it had to be done..

OUCH

 

[46L281GT]

Yep, hefty price but day 2 and still working fine. Now if only I would buy the wheel sensors for my TPMS light to go away. Of course after posting that, I was as to take the invoice to the place I had recently purchased the vehicle and they cut me a reimbursement check so that helps.
