Re: ABS warning light and chewed wires!

Updates: I disconnected both negative and positive battery terminals a couple days ago. Came back to the car this morning, reconnected terminals, and it seems to be firing up again as normal.

Yes all lights come on and the 4 beeps as normal when ignition is turned. I haven't noticed any chewed wires around there.

Re: ABS warning light and chewed wires!

Makes sense but how could a diagnostic check cause that? Everything seemed in working order right before the test. I will next check the fob battery and car battery. I don't have a spare dissy to replace so will have to purchase a replacement one. You wouldn't happen to have one for sale?

Re: ABS warning light and chewed wires!

Re: ABS warning light and chewed wires!

Can't see any unconnected wires, literally drove the car out the garage to do the diagnostic check for the ABS. Went to start the engine. Nothing.
