Good morning Grrrrrr I can’t find Marty?

I do know that Marty has repaired several WABCO D ECUs. A search of his past posts might even reveal what it was he did. He did mention the issue never seemed to occur on Wabco C models.

I want to disconnect the battery and gently clean all connectors on the BECM, I have a small copper wire brush and contact cleaner. The white calc residue that forms on old connectors needs to be removed me thinks?

I Key in, turn to light up dash then ABS failure and Traction failure messages, windows not set, sunroof not set... So, the windows, sunroof etc are physically closed but the BECM is not getting that input as well!

When a fault occurs the abs ecu always logs it into its memory. It then tells the BECM that it has an active fault. The BECM then instructs the instrument cluster to turn on the ABS/TC lights and display the messages. So if there is a fault the...

For the purpose of this diagnosis which of the settings should I try to discover the ABS-TC fault? NORMAL ADRE.APP ALM.APP APPMAM.APPAS10.APP BECM.APP CANDET.APP CANINST.APP ETC.....

No, they do sit in a copper mesh bush. The rubber just sits on top but hasn't stop the sensor bedding down. In all this searching for the cause of the ABS-TC dash lights being constantly on I want to try and understand the systems that could lead...

I found another reading regarding brakes Low high brakes at rest High low pedal depressed The WABCO D brake readings ars still close/close-open/open!

Nanocom EDC, WABCO Pics of ABS sensors. Gently tapped in and seated with a copper mallet. The connections have been cleaned and where they should be.

no

‘

here’s a thing. This truck is on springs! Could that trigger the ABS/TC dash lights? It’s in the WABCO D section on my nanocom?

yes, I thought as much, do these switches fail often, I have tried everything but the result is always both closed or open!

The chances of have the same fault in two switches are slim to FA. I’ve had the nanocom about a week and have been messing with it. Could I have messed up a setting to give a wrong result?

I fitted the new brake switch as per RAVE Readings are: Close/Close Close/Open Open/Open I must be missing something here? ABS/TC dash lights still on. Did I fit the bulb correctly🤔 The dash lights only came on after I fitted new ABS sensors...

When I remove the switch the Nanocom reads sw 1 closed sw 2 open. When depressing the plunger I can feel it switching halfway and again fully depressed. When I reattach the switch the reading is both closed when depressed, the brake switch was...

Very helpful, tomorrow mornings job, by the way nanocom is running as it should, Hope for clear sky's tomorrow, metaphorically as well as weather-wise!

If it's already in place then you can pull the plunger out with the pedal down, you don't need to remove it and risk braking it Pun intended

@MontyChambers did you do the Nanocom check (not while driving) on the two inputs ? No point in replacing the switch unless you're sure it's broke !! The RAVE procedure had a missing bit between 7 & 8. It should be: 7. Extend switch plunger...

But how do I change the setting for brake switch 2?

Yes, thanks, I am on that now!

I will by some prayer beads!

My evolution was working fine, then occasionally it would be able to communicate with the ECU but this was rarely, Now it boots to Kernel, Firmware, Graphics, Nanocom Diagnostics Kernel goes to ‘Kernel bootloader activated and switches the unit...

Just a side question, my nanocm has stopped working properly, I want install firmware but it asks for a numeric code. Where can I find that code

Just a side question, my nanocm has stopped working properly, I want install firmware but it asks for a numeric code. Where can I find that code?

Check the brake switch using Nanocom. No need to drive around for this. Here's my Wabco-C but the brake switch wiring is the same. Switch-1 should be normally closed, and open when the pedal is pressed. Switch-2 closes when pressing the...

Where are the brake switches to be found? Near the pedal presumably?

I can tick off the ABS sensors as good, The bulb is new I should begin looking at a wiring fault, the wiring all looks tip top though, this truck has been kept well.

Just took it for a spin and still have the ABS TC lights on! I had my nanocom going? not sure what to make of it? brakes feel good.
