Nice video. I always try to take away something from your videos. Everybody can always learn something if they pay attention, even if it is the smallest detail. Stay well, from Manitoba!
One thing about this trade there is always something new to learn. I always tell my students if you didn't learn something today then you weren't paying attention... thanks for watching.
This is very interesting, because I recently had my ABS module rebuilt and when the ABS light came back in I assumed it malfunctioned again. The 1296 and 1963 codes appeared. So I will have to check that front left hub out I guess. Thanks for posting this.
I knew if I just check back from time to time you would eventually be covering an 09 or 10 with abs related issues. Another great video! Thanks a lot Phillip. You do an excellent job of explaining things to the viewer.
Dealership says they can’t communicate with abs module. (brake system warning, traction control and abs lights on cluster. ) It’s been this way for about 6 years now 1000 k miles. Recently came across a tsb stating to recalibrate abs if truck experienced issues upon installing larger tires. My 09 KR purchased used had aftermarket 18”s on it. I installed oem 20” wheels from 2011 KR. Recently took it to the dealership and asked if they could pull codes for me as I am thinking about sending module in to be refurbished. Dealership stated they couldn’t communicate with the abs and it would need to be replaced and suggested I replace master cylinder as well as pump. Is there no way they can look up code history from when it originally occurred? I am searching for my service history notepad to see if I can find notes from back then. Thanks so much for any feedback.
Before condemning the ABS module you need to qualify powers and grounds to it. No Communication could be a simple as a blown fuse. If powers and grounds are ok to the module need to confirm the network wiring at the module.
Don't know why master cylinder and pump would be required. Are you having brake problems other than the ABS light on? Sounds like they are just firing the parts cannon...
@@PhillipBailey Thanks again for the feedback Phillip. I located the codes I received back when the lights came on. Back then it gave me the following codes. The second I still can’t make sense of given I’ve never driven past 90 mph. The week this occurred was when driving down hill in a storm and vaguely remember hydroplaning some. Also I was driving on our property in some wetlands/marsh area and attempted use use 4x4 to get out of a rut (nothing serious like off-roading). Not sure if either could have caused such. Since adding the oem 20” wheels the speedometer is a little off 3-4 mph faster than what it should be. At any rate I am going to do what you suggest by checking power/grounds…fuses etc. B1342 (ABS Module Malfunction non-mill) P0297 (Vehicle over speed condition) As of this week a buddy used his snap on and found a code -U0121-00 (Loss communication with ABS control module “A” not current DTC) If I come across anything I will attempt to use what you shared in previous videos to troubleshoot before seeking more advice lol thank you for your time and responding. Also as it stands now given all of the scan tools you have tried out can you suggest one that’s in the $300 or below range? Thanks
Hey Phillip awesome video,subbed. Thank you. I have 2011 ford e150 time to time Id plug my obd reader and occasionally the code C1963 comes up and sometimes it doesn’t, does that have anything to with the electrical for the steering
If the C1963 is in the ABS then stability control is disabled possibly due to codes in other controllers. You need to do a complete network scan of all controllers see what else is setting codes.
I have a 2010 Ford F150 with this problem. Codes U0121, Lost control with ABS control module. B1596, service continuous memory (DTC)s. B2900. (VIN) Mismatch. C1440, Pressure difference transducer circuit failure. C1963, Stability control inhibit warning. ABS sensor, ABS module, or Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) gone bad?
Could be a number of possibilities. Start by doing a network scan of all controllers and record the codes in each module. Clear all codes and then test the charging system for a bad alternator diode. Clean all battery cable connections and body grounds. Make sure the battery is in good condition and passes a load test. Drive or run it and see what codes return in which modules. Is the MIL on as well?
Hey great video.i got a 2010 mustang v6 with a c1963-30 code and the tc light and not the check engine but also a light that looks like the tc light turns on at times and wen applying the brakes the steering wheel goes from side to side.mechanic notice the front passenger side pads were wearing down faster.should i look into the wheel sensor to begin with? Car has 30k on it.thanks.
You need to do a network scan of all controllers as the fault could be in the ECM or possibly the SIR. That code appears to be associated with the steering sensor: Normal Operation The ABS module uses information received from several sensors (wheel speed sensors, steering wheel rotation sensor, stability control sensors, etc.) to determine if vehicle stability or traction warrants Electronic Stability Control (ESC) interaction. If interaction is warranted, the ABS module will adjust brake torque at specific wheels and the PCM will reduce engine torque to make the vehicle more stable. Once the ABS module has determined that the stability event has been corrected, it will return brake and engine torque to normal and continue to monitor the vehicle. If conditions exist during normal operation that prevent the ESCsystem from operating, DTC C1963 will be set. This DTC is usually set due to the steering wheel rotation sensor or the Restraints Control Module (RCM) being damaged or installed incorrectly. This DTC will not clear until the vehicle has been driven above 48 km/h (30 mph) with input from the steering wheel rotation sensor. DTC C1963 (Stability Control Inhibit Warning) - Once every key-cycle the ABS module will determine the straight-ahead or center position of the steering wheel by monitoring the steering wheel rotation sensor while the vehicle is being driven. If the vehicle reaches a speed of 75 km/h (47 mph) without finding the center position or if 30 seconds has passed since the initial drive-off without finding the center position, DTC C1963 will set.
Very informative, I'm subscribing.. quick question I have a 13 f150 raptor with intermittent light check brake system/ hill decent control/ check advance trac/ with traction control light abs light and parking brake light on? Any suggestions
I'd suggest to start with a network scan of all controllers. Check for codes related to the ABS and Traction Control system. The codes should give you some direction.
I have an 09 F150 SC that has the traction control light on steady, it used to intermittent, I recently had a scan done which indicated a bad brake light switch its bee replaced after which a second came up indicating the ABS system (I have no issues with braking and no ABS lights) the truck has 170K kms. on it. Any ideas on what else to look at?
You need to do a total system scan of all controllers and report back what codes it's setting in which modules. If you have a warning light on then you should have a code as well.
I know a tech that over torqued the 13 mm axle nut and broke off the tip of the axle stud with the nut. He reinstalled the axle anyway...no axle nut. On this F-150...what kind of problems might arise?
C1963 indicates that the Stability Control function has been inhibited. This is usually due to an input problem in the ABS system but code I believe be caused by codes in the ECM. Is the MIL on as well? Are there other modules reporting codes during a network scan?
Just curious, why would you replace the bearing when all it really needed was the abs speed sensor? The bearing is just the hunk of metal the abs speed sensor gets it's reading off of. $20-40 fix verses couple hundred with the bearing. Unless the bearing was blown it should not have been changed.
@lanthanum68 up here in Canada eh we have a lot of rust and 90% of the time the sensor won't come out of the cast iron wheel bearing without breaking off.

@@PhillipBailey No, the MIL is not on, only the ABS light, brake light, and rotates the check braking system and the traction light.
Actually, got a good look, brake fluid leaking from what I suspect is the HCU.

hello, i only have the B1596 code, do you have idea of what it is ? very good video :)
I believe the B1596 is due to a code or codes in the engine controls computer. Is the MIL on and due you have any engine codes?
Just helped me with my Ford F-150 problem ….. so how do you know which one is bad … and is it standard procedure just to do all 4 ?
No you don't want to change all the speed sensors if one has just failed. The code/s should direct you to the problem sensor. Good luck
@@PhillipBailey awesome thank you
I know a tech that over torqued the 13 mm axle nut and broke off the tip of the axle stud with the nut. He reinstalled the axle anyway...no axle nut. On this F-150...what kind of problems might arise?
The axle might walk inwards and allow the 4x4 to unlock so the wheel won't drive in 4wd. Do i know this tech?
Phillip Bailey No...you don’t know this tech. Thanks for the reply.
