slayer129978 Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 ABS traction control service stability system lights came on after going to my car to leave a mall, ive had the lights come on before, Then all of a sudden they go off and stay off for maybe 2 weeks or more then come back on. Ive replaced a coroded termanal to the abs module, and the ground termanal seems to be coroded too. I havent replaced the ground termanal due to lack of a place to work on it. Its a 98 STS It hasnt effected the drivabilty as far as i can tell, The lights are just more of a nusaince then anything. The code i get off of it is C1242 - Pump Motor Circuit Open (high resistance in the motor) Im not much of an electrical guy so if anyone has had this problem and fixed it or has an idea what to do, I would greatly appreciate your replies. Today i took off the ground cable and scraped corrosion of and the lights are still on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Sounds like you will have to replace that pump. It may be part of the EBTCM, but I'm not positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slayer129978 Posted August 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 See i wondered that too, The light goes off for a bit then it comes back on thats why ive questioned getting a new one because i wasnt sure if it was just some faulty ground or wiring and such but im gonna mess around with it a bit more. Do you know if the connector that goes into it, it has a metal latch i wanna say on it, does the connector come out from there? i tryed getting it off but i didnt know if it came off or if it was stuck. Theres another wire that goes into the moduale and theres like a little connector that connects the wire together. Ill post some pics tomorrow if i can because its kind of hard to describe.
