Well I'm just saying they are a lot easier than doing it the old way and having to have a programmer to cycle the ABS unit.

Yes I remember bleeding a few Dodge ABS systems with the scanner tool. Glad the new systems dont have to be done that way.

P.S. does anyone else have a problem with the submit reply button with Internet Explorer? I have to quote things to be able to post.

Default Yeah

I was gonna let that slide since I'm a noob here but it did give me a laugh...

I found out this morning my local library has ALL the wiring diagrams, repair procedures, etc on line. SWEET! They have this stuff for cars going all the way back to 1954!

I down loaded the instrument panel schematics so i guess i'll start troubleshooting this damn problem. Again, if anybody comes up with info, let me know! Thanks.

I sell headlight fluid or blinker fluid all the time. I say that to my customers as well to see if they are paying attention. I usually refer to bug juice or windshield washer fluid as Blinker fluid or headlight fluid. Also Exhaust doughnut gaskets are muffler bearings. I love the look on their faces when I say things like that, in a matter-of-fact tone, like these are real parts.

Angry dom bit...

Well, still no luck on figuring out the dead rpm/speedo/odometer. Killing me. We're putting it all back together and thank God we bagged and labeled all the bolts, screws etc. Also installed all the new wiring for the stereo, amps, speakers and all that. My son is getting excited and i'm getting worried about having pay mechanic to fix this damn problem...
