Hello everyone. Like the title says, I can't get my (abs) light to stop blinking. It has never done it before I installed my 3715 Superchips tuner. I started by tuning it to the 87 octane setting, then I started the truck and the light started blinking. So, I set it back to stock and it still flashes. I also tried it in the performance mode, but the same thing. I went back through and did this numerous times, but nothing works. I did notice that when I was going through the tire size the first time, it said stock size was 31.5 or something? I have 285/75/16 tires, so I put in 32.75"( it wouldn't do 32.8) for the size. Then, when I went to try to install the performance mode for the second time around, it is saying the stock size is 21.75? I tried changing the tire size a few times(31" thru 33"), but that didn't help either. I did take the truck up the road and I did notice a difference in power, and the brakes still feel the same, so thats good. But I can't stand to see that light everyday. Has anyone ever had this happen before?

Thanks,
Chad

 

Also, I did a scan and there are no codes. I have searched and searched this and I can't find anything. I can't be the first to have this happen.

 

Either the tuner screwed up your speed sensor (or whatever you want to call it), which would make the ABS light flash, or when it tried to program it, the sensor/thing decided to take a crap.

I'd contact Superchips, through their customer service department or their forums. See what they have to say.

 

yeah, call superchips. ask them for a fix. i'm sure they've seen it before.

 

I wrote Ron on the Superchips site and he said he has never heard of this happening. He told me to call a tech and see if an engineer can help.

 

If something did just happen to go bad, where should I look first? My speedo works fine, and the ABS light is the only light flashing.

 

check your other thread, i just posted in there

 

if there is something wrong with the speed sensor then it would trip a check engine light. the abs is a totally different system. the only way to check an abs code is at the dealer. they can plug in and see exactly why the light is flashing. it could be something as easy as a blown fuze. so i would set it back to the stock setting and take it to a dodge dealer. they would have it figured out in a fiew mins

 

I went through and checked all connections, I put in a new ABS sensor, set the ECU back to stock, and checked all of the fuses. And it is still flashing. I don't know why the break light isn't flashing, and the speedometer still works fine. Does the code check have to be done at the dealer? Why can't my local shop do it? So, is it your advice to upgrade to a better tuner, or just go back to the death flash?

 

the local shop can do it if they have a DRB 3 scanner.
