First mod issues...

02Roush · January 27th, 2010, 11:34 PM

So I got my first few mods and installed them today. They were a steeda cai, bassani off road x-pipe and a tuner w/ a tune from AM. After getting everything on and the tune installed I went for a test drive. I noticed I could not turn my traction control on, the ABS light was steadily illuminated and when I hit the brakes hard, the emergency brake light came on. Is this a tune problem or something else?

You probably had AM turn the Traction Control OFF in the tune. Once that is done, you can't turn it on unless you go back and redo it. Also, your brake pads are worn, that's why your E-Brake light is turning on. Mine did that awhile back.

That's not why the light comes on....
Make sure the brake fluid reservoir is topped off. If it is ok check the parking brake switch.
You need to get the code pulled for the ABS light.

Dont top it off too much to where it comes up to the lid though! There has to be some space in there for the suction or else it will actually start sucking the top of the damn reservoir down. Happened to my 05 not too long ago

Problem resolved: It was the ground wire in front of the air filter. I forgot to put it back on. Thanks for the info though..
