Default I think that's the one I'm getting.

I'd have to walk downstairs to confirm.

Lights up your cluster brake and ABS lights?

Mine is intermittent, too. I pulled the cluster and the connector at the ABS controller, verified continuity of the key wire from point A to point B, and reseated the connector. Problem still occurs.

I think I'm going to pull the ABS controller electronics and send them into Module Master for a rebuild.

Default ^^Thanks vv I'll try the connector at the unit first and hope. First time for this code.

I have done nothing with the IC but I do wipe things down in the engine bay after a wash. Mebe I dislodged something.

Thx again,

Default There's a big pull tab thing on the end of the connector at the ABS.

It pulls straight out to the side, and pops the connector off as you pull.
