Default 3 Amigos Repair Question

With the 3 Amigos displaying constantly I replaced the modulator switches and seals. Got it back on the road and 3 Amigos is still on and definitely don't have ABS. I still get the Code P1590. I tried to look into the ABS Modulator repair sticky but cannot seem to pull it up. Any advice is appreciated.

*IF* The shuttle valve switches were the original source of the code(s), the lights should go off on their own, as the fault is no longer present.

I can't wait to get my software soon to see what the source of my latest amigos is...

P1590 is a more or less generic "rough road" code which is set by the ECU. It can even be triggered by engine misfires. 95% of the code scanners are only going to be able to pull the 'P' codes from the ECU and are not able to pull the separate ABS codes from the ABS ECU in our vehicles. You will need a scanner that can actually pull ABS codes, not just P codes.

Where are you located? I have a scanner that reads Rover ABS codes.

I recommend you at least look at mln01's post... it really helped me. It sounds like you are following the path I took, it was a little frustrating. However after I spent the time reading mln01's post, I am now 3 Amigo free

Oh yes and the time it took to do the ABS option B repair was an hour or so and I didn't have to bleed the brakes Hope that helps.

Cheers!
