There's probably just air in the RABS valve body on the frame rail below the drivers feet.
Tom suggested that most people have bypassed it by now.

There is a wire under the dash that you can ground and then cycle the key on to flash codes from the computer.
IIRC it is orange with a single gray connector at the end.

Grounded the connector, the light flashes twice pauses and then flashes twice again (-..-..-..-..-). I'm guessing that's a code 2.

Anyone know what that means?

The code consists of a number of short flashes and ends with a long flash. Count the short flashes and include the following long flash in the count to obtain the code number. For example, three short flashes followed by one long flash indicates Flashout Code Four. The code will continue to repeat itself until the key is turned off. It is recommended that the code be verified by reading it several times. In addition, the first code flashed may be too short because it may have been started in the middle. It should be ignored.




Okay, I guess it's actually a code 3 'open dump circuit." Still not sure what that implies though. Any ideas?
