Default Could be ABS??? point me in the right direction

Hey ...I'm a new guy. I used to do my own work (a porsche, 2 volvos and a chevette) when I was young and cars were simple ... to about the mid 80's.

I don't really have a great deal of trust for my landrover dealer. I found a mechanic I trust a great deal but I think this one might be pushing the limit of his expertise ...

I came ot a stop in my 2002 disco sd and got an abs alarm, decnt control alarm and a traction control alarm. This mechanic thinks it the ABS module and is concerned over cost. I surfed the web and the prevalent word is ABS modulator and I'm seeing rebuild kits and services for what looks reasonable. Is that one and the same as a module?

Point me int heright direction if you would... also any insight intothe value of teh just answers website mechanics??

Thansk for your help upfront.

if the code is for a shuttle valve failure then yes it will need a new abs modulator kit. It runs around 800 or so.

you need to get the ABS codes read and come back to us with the code so we can properly diagnose
