Good Luck.... I still think you should have it logged by a dealer with the right data-logging tool in order to really pin-point any additional issues.

Well you just have to make sure that you can replicate the problem while they are logging it.... if they have a log of it they can usually find where the problem is...

Question I have for you is, is a $100 diagnostic fee worth more than your life if your brakes happen to fail at the wrong moment...?

Took it in today and they called and said my speedo problem and my brake problem is bc all of my power modules like the abs amd tipm arent communicating back and forth to one another like they are supposed to so they are running independently instead of all together..said the cause is a short or possibly more than one somewhere..said they should find it bythe early tomorrow and im looking at $200 in diagnostic fees and tou fix theit shorted wire or wires..$200 sounds alot better than what i feared it was gonna cost..ill kno more tomorrow

ok so the abs and brake light being on and the brake problem is bc both of the front speed sensors built into my hubs somehow were rubbing on a ring inside of the hub and it was sending a signal to the abs module that my front wheels werent moving but the back were..so theres that problem..well then both my hub sensors were hard wired..someone had cut the plugs off of them so they ran new wires from the module to the hubs with plugs..they think after that it will also fix my speedo bc it was have the correct amount of voltage coming through the wires..i guess i wasnnt getting the right voltage before bc the hard wire..said if the speedo still messes up the are gonna replace a plug that is on the back of the tipm and drive it and if it still does it its my tipm..but all the techs working on it say thay after the new hubs and those correct wires running to them are replaced it should be fine..hubs wont be in till monday so ill kno something then..overall its gonna be $700..parts,labor and diagnostic fees.
