Bloody fault codes!

Post by **Thebusofwoe** » Fri Mar 22, 2013 9:12 pm

Hi guys. I'm not going to start this in the new members section as its not for there!! Anyway I got my lude a week or so ago and me and my master tech checked out these codes (abs and 4ws). I got it home and disconnected the battery to save it draining. I or we have been discussing the abs and 4ws codes in the newbie section, thanks by the way

. I pop ova to re-check these codes. So reconnect the battery and plug in my 2pin bridge connector. Now the bloody codes have changed! I'm getting a code 62 from the primary 4ws ecu and a 70 code from the secondary. Abs code is 4-6 blinks then just goes out. Now we diagnosed a sensor and modulator failure at work for the abs and a steering position sensor and the motor failure for the 4ws. It would seem the disconnection of the battery has reset something. Now I tried the 4ws reset procedure found on here but it won't let me do it. I saw something about relay solder failure??? I'm planning on ripping it all out tbh but obviously if it works then I will leave it. Being a honda tech I should know this but the usual diagnosis would just say 'replace ecu' or 'replace motor', but I'd like to fix it. So, question is would a ecu repair fix this, as I can do that at work.

Ah jobby for about 30 mins

I connect the 2pin, turn the wheel 45-80degrees and switch on the ign. Just goes into blink code mode!!

It doesn't say anything about doing this in the manual, or at least I can't find it. It must work tho as people have done it loads

did you follow the rest of the procedure?

Yea I did. But should it go into reset mode or something? All it does is just flash through the codes. We have never done this at our place. I said to my master tech about it and he looked utterly confused lol

just found a guide on the reset and the ecu solder repair. Going to have another go at it tomorrow.

Hang on, yours is a 4th gen. The reset is not for you!

Deffo try the soldering - it worked for me, and for a few others on here
