1999 P38 4.6 at last a P38 to play with !
Hi guys I have just been asked to help with a P38, after the last one I owned I vowed not to look at any RR in plain sight and now find myself owning one and enjoying (in some strange way ?) fixing it again !
Anyway here we go, I have RSW for the P38 so am going to try this to dionose the fault which seems to be ABS, I will add all I know about the car below.
Car has been at a garage and had new rear diff and axle complete, new rear wheel bearings and is back running, however it threw the ABS light up and the mechainic put snap on reader on and it said F/N/S ABS sensor air gap so he raised the car and pushed it down fully before trying to connect again and it seems as so no power to the socket and so he can not connect again to read, same reader and same socket ?
When the car was left idling the ABS light went out ! it was driven a mile no problems and then threw the light up again and still will not connect to diognose to the reader.
Apparently he did report that the dask lights played up on the 1 mile above drive (but he is a driver not a fixer if you know what I mean) thought I would add this in as well in case a connection that some have had before.
So basicly ABS light came on, read air gap incorrect pushed it down now will not read and ABS went off at idle possibly dash lights played up.
My plan is to put RSW on it and try and read this weekend and after your advice to the above.
As always any advice / knowladge is greatly appriciated from you all and sorry if I am slow to reply and thank you all that help.
