Abs Problem 01' V6

If it is the same as the GT it takes a special(VERY expensive one) Scanner to read the codes when you have both ABS and Traction Control. My research shows a lot of failures of the Bosch Control Module(also very expensive) located on the main ABS Unit. I also tried a few scanners and had a mobile mechanic try to get the codes from his smartphone and finally called Auto Parts Stores and they said to call the tech lines. That is when I found out the scanners that work actually have to have the vehicle info. entered into the scanner, professional and expensive ones. I called around and the repair shops verified my findings and wanted from$65-$75 to read the ABS/Traction Control DTC's. I have not done that yet although the wheel sensors are relatively cheap but my luck hasn't been that great so far. Brakes work fine so I am back burnering for now, really do like the ABS could live without traction control.

The mobile mechanic had that on his phone and got some more codes than the regular scanner but not the traction control ones to troubleshoot the problem. He also mentioned an expensive shop oriented one that you had to enter the year model etc to access the needed codes. When I get some money I an going to bite the bullet and spend the cash for the shop code read and hope it is a wheel sensor or something cheap(relatively). I saw on Ebay an ad to send your module in for rebuilding for $99.99 and you can still drive the car while getting it rebuilt so maybe I can get it fixed somewhat reasonably since a new module is like $1600-$1800 I was told, will hope for a wheel sensor though ha ha.

Sadly climbing under cars is over for me......arthritis and old age have caught up with me or it would have been fixed right away.
