XR6Turbosonator Member 48 Member For: 13y 8m 27d Posted 10/08/11 10:20 AM Share Posted 10/08/11 10:20 AM (edited) Constantly on are my ABS, Traction Control and Brake lights.Had Ford scan it with the diagnostics tool, left front sensor. Cleaned all four, lights still on.Second scan, now it says internal ECU Fault.Could be the ABS Module? Bosch 5.3.Apparently there is fix on youtube, that 90% of the time a wire comes loose and needs to be soldered back on.Any idea's?

Two of us have almost the exact same problem right now, the only difference is our lights come on under load, not constantly - so possibly what ever is wrong with our cars is on its way out, and what ever is wrong with your car, is totally out.My car goes into a workshop Monday to hopefully get fixed.Toxic07 - Mine - Wheres this Youtube video? Cuz I'd love to try it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz I'd love to try it!Yes I know I saw your posts, read them, didn't really help me though.So I am going to take the plunge and try an ABS module from the wreckers for $165 (if your going to get one aswell, must be matching part numbers to work and the N/A modules have different pipe holes, won't fit the T.Youtube vid: Be carefull taking the black cover off, it may be brittle, mine was and I cracked it, they are supposed to be water tight. Don't try and take the whole black cover off. The top square piece of the module cover is what you lift open (not the smaller rectangle piece underneath either, cut around the edge with a stanley knife to remove the seal.Anyhow, the electronics wires were fine, nothing like in the vid, so it could be the pump, or not the module at all, will see on Monday how we go.
