Default Stability ControlFailure,TractionControl Problem fixed RESOLVED

I had these indicators on for a while.

Reading on the forum, I removed all sensors with a 8mm socket, cleaned them with scotch pads and brake cleaner, reinstalled.

I also noticed the driver side cable had blue corrosion on it, a little PB blaster got rid of all that.

I then dremeled off the faces of the ABS module 4 screws, replaced with regular screws for future, removed the washer fluid fill cap, and slightly bent the brake lines to get my module out.

Then used a plastic welder to burn a access entry to the area I needed.

The solder joints were looking nice and had epoxy on them!

I still scraped all that stuff off and used high grade silver solder from radio shack on both solder points for power. Put a piece of plastic on top, plastic welded that to cover entry point.


Drove the car, after just 1 block all lights off woo hoo!


Dealership wanted over 3 grand after getting the codes checked, they said all 4 abs sensors, all 4 sensor cables, abs/traction module were bad.

Congratulations on a clean fix. Always feels good to make it work and save money in the bargain.
