No I dont know how

Looks like there is a lot of info here - https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...an-eec-iv.html
There are a couple of ways to do it. Try one and if you have trouble, let me know. |
I'll also add...I have pulled the codes via the jumper method and while it works, I think it is just a lot easier to spend $40 and get a code reader from an auto parts store. When I read the codes I connect my reader, push a button, walk away, and when I get back it's done.

Thanks, I will try that.....I was going to let Autozone scan it, but they said their reader only looks and Check Engine Codes and will not see Brake codes....not sure if thats true or the guy doesnt know....but I have put enough money in the brakes, another handfull wont break me I guess....I'll let you know what I find out

I've looked on-line and all the code readers will only scan ABS codes for 1997 and newer with 4 wheel ABS...mine is a 96 with 2 wheel ABS on rear only.....anyone have any other suggestions as to whats left that can be bad I can replace?

Im having a similar problem and what fixed the trouble light for me was replacing a bad connector for the ABS/VSS.
