BabyFace Fitz Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 The car seems to run fine but I've got ABS and VDC lights on. I put in the connecting wire to get the codes, I would like help with "reading the code". Here's the flash pattern. I am unsure if a count every flash. The pattern repeats, and is made of long flashes (I) and short ones (i) and spaces.. Here's my break down. Long one, short one, space, , 7 long, 1short, space, 7long, 4 short, space, four long, 9 short then quickly repeat. If I count all of them I get 34, Front left outlet valve? Here's a link to the codes. thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 Lucky Texan Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 abs is very sensitive to voltage, check that. ever replace the alternator? MANY, many folks have installed incorrect/poor rebuilt alternators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyFace Fitz Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 Yes, the alternator looks like it has been replaced. I've owned the car for around four years and can't remember if I did it, but if I did it was years ago. I usually get NAPA parts. Should I check the voltage after disconnection the wires? Is the ABS disabled currently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 hard to say about ABS function, you could have a bad wheel sensor or other issue....But checking voltage should be easy and is a known problem area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyFace Fitz Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Thanks Texan, in the next couple of weeks I will be checking this out. I will check voltage and see if I can identify the manafacture of the alt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
