Well, there's an ABS Amigo is alive and well in Fort Worth, TX! Slick little device. Here is the information I got when I read/cleared the codes:

OK guys....where do I start???


Thanks!

 

I had same issue/codes a few months back and did an all corner brake job and have not seen the amigos since. I assume your ABS/TC isn't working? How are your brakes? Are they squeaking at all?

 

No, it seems the ABS is not working (at least not prior to clearing the codes.) I was on wet streets last week and when you jam the brakes they lock up and do not pulsate at all. Yes, I have some squeaking in the brakes.

I have new EBC rotors and pads ready to go, but wanted to determine why I had the codes prior to installing the new pads and rotors.

Am I looking at a shuttle valve job here?

 

Have your brakes been squeaking? Can you throw a panic stop and still feel the ABS pulsate thru your brake pedal? If so, clear the codes and see if they come back, if they do and your brakes are squeaking, that is your issue, I doubt the shuttle valve is a player here.

 

I would put the new brakes on and see if that is the issue, was with mine....knock on wood lol...

 

When I throw a panic stop on wet pavement, I get no pulsation, just locked and skidding wheels.

Drove about 40 miles today and the lights are still off, but I'm concerned the ABS is not working as it should...

Interestingly, the ABS Amigo cleared my "brake" light too.

 

Try on some gravel, or get somewhere the TC should kick in, when mine was all cleared it took a little more to get the brakes to pulsate.

 

You mention it taking "a little more" to get your ABS to kick in. Does clearing the codes actually cause parts of the system to begin working again? I had thought the codes were just a warning and didn't really affect the performance of the system. For example, you could have the 3 Amigos and still have an operating ABS system, right?

 

Yes, my ABS/TC did still work when my 3 amigos were going off when I turned truck off but when I had the 3 plus the brake light and they stayed on after turning off then my ABS/TC would not work. I had the codes cleared and new rotors and pads on all 4 and have yet to see them again knock on wood.....and ABS/TC are working.
