ABS + Traction Contol Lights ON After Working on Power Steering Hoses
I had a shop replace the two small rubber hose segments connecting the Power Steering Fluid Cooling Coil segment .
He had a difficult time particularly as it appears he didn't notice the small metal pipe intermediary segment attaches to the fender/wheel well with a plastic Nut on the outside in the wheel well and he used some excessive force which ripped that fitment through the body panel there.
When he was done and I started the car to leave I saw the ANTI LOCK and the Traction Control lights were on and have not gone off.
I will be going back Monday for him to scan the car and see what's up.
Could unplugging the Throttle Control Module while doing the PS hose work trigger a fault that needs to be cleared?
the ASC+T system is definitely not operational at this time as verified last night driving in Snow when I realized the car had slid a long distance without the usual grabbing of the wheels .
Anyway Just figured I'd see if anyone has any ideas as to what he may have done.
I supposed maybe he damaged wiring for the Wheel Speed sensor .
I unplugged and refitted the main ABS module plug to be sure it was on tight and I see no obviously broken wiring in that area...
