OK guys, I don't know a whole lot about ABS, but my Exploder is complaining, so I gotta figure it out.
Both the RABS and BRAKE lights are lit, after a few seconds of engine running, every time. It's code "4." It appears to be an open circuit within the RABS valve (between pins 2 and 3), in the "dump valve circuit."
Obviously, I need an RABS valve, but time is an issue, so I'd like some idea of the consequence of not fixing it for a few weeks. Does this mean the RABS just doesn't do anything, or do I have no rears? Brake feel is normal, and the vehicle stops well in good traction (this wasn't always true in the old days, when that valve was plugged up solid with rust).
