Default 3 Amigo issues

Hello
ok I have them yes :-(..... But i scanned the codes with an icarsoft 1930 and only get ecu ground or reference ground fault. reset codes but the abs and the traction control lights stay on , rescan and no codes, run the truck down the road and the break light and the hill decent light comes on. stop turn off key and the break and hill go off. scan again and the ground fault comes back.
do I have an ecu connection issue or am i chasing grounds on the body??
Thanks

Very difficult to tell from your description. You may wish to see if there is an ABS amigo for rent here on the board. Your scanner may not reset everything, but I'm not sure.

the scanner is supposed to be able to read and clear the abs codes for the 3 amigos, and that fault read is being pulled from the abs section of the scanner

pull the shuttle valve and check the ohms across the connection. 3-2-1 . Both open,each one closed, both closed. Then wire in the bypass to the yellow/green wire. you may have the internal solder fault. This fixed mine.

did the shuttle valve electrical conversion today, and only dtc code is the same one. reset codes restarted still have the traction control and abs lifgt. Also confirmed with Atlantic British on the scanner and it will read and reset the codes for the 3 amigos.

ABS Mod - LAND ROVER CLUB V.I.

follow that link and do options 37-45 only. Do not and I repeat do not remove the brake lines. You can access the shuttle valve by undoing the screws holding the rubber bushings in and access the shuttle valve Allen head screws without removing the lines
