I think you have one of these: E-series vans feature an optional Kelsey-Hayes EBC-5 4-wheel ABS system

The HCU ( hydraulic control unit ) is what you are looking for if you have determined the wiring to and from it is good. The computer is a separate part. I tried looking it up on RockAuto and Cardone’s websites and neither one had a HCU for 4 wheel ABS.

The part number should be for the HCU: F4UZ 2C286-A.

I’m not sure what you mean. What does how easy or difficult a repair is have to do with part availability? You could try sending a PM to NumberDummy to see if a dealer still has one on the shelf if you cannot find one from a parts store.

Yes. Replacing the HCU will require bleeding the brakes since you are opening up the hydraulic system. I don’t think you need any special tools. I replaced the 4 wheel ABS HCU on my ‘94 Bronco and I didn’t need anything. Standard bleeding procedures.

When i check the internet for the meaning, it seems that all 3 can be related to a loss of signal due to a possible wiring issue. That would be great, because i also have the problem that the speedo jumps around at high speeds (maybe bad signal?) , and i have a gearbox that sometimes wants to engage when the van is stopped (i read that the gearbox is controlled by a computer that reads the van's speed, so maybe this is a gearbox computer not knowing if the van is moving or not?).
Does anyone have a wiring diagram to this ABS system? maybe there is a spot where all 3 wires or signals come together, or maybe i just need to clean a connector?

Im having an issue finding the Orange/Black Data Link Wire..

Here is the wiring diagrams
