As for your ABS light, did you disconnect any wiring around the steering? mine was on after some tranny work and it was a harness for the magnasteer (variable effort steering)...its all part of the TCS. You may notice your steering is a bit tighter and maybe the pump whines a bit a low speeds.
Yeah after i did my tranny install about a week later i noticed that plug was not connected. So uh...If that is the case do i have to like reset the abs light somehow with and abs scanner? I dont know much on this subject but i figured that was it. but when i plugged it back in the light continued to stay on.


It's just kinda funny how my abs ligh all of a sudden came on as soon as i was done with the cam and tranny install.

I know you can get both off ebay for about $120 a pair shipped. I was thinking of getting mine from there.

I vote something is unplugged man.....or a frayed wire somewhere in there.

Just hate to see you drop some cash on something you don't need.

I bet it's wiring somewhere. This one time when I was rewiring under the dash, I actually forgot to re-attatch a ground wire to the column, and it did the exact same thing. Check and RE check.

Best way to look I guess is a Tech-2, but those are a little hard to come by.
