ABS PCM Problem

Hey Guys, I know there has been many posts about this but after reading a bunch of them it seems that most are related to a wide variety of problems. This what happened for me.


First of all let me start by explaining what happened seconds before the "failure" messages came up. I was putting the car through some WOT(testing Intercoolers) on a very twisty and hilly road and it was only 40deg out(bad combo). At one point, at the crest of a small hill followed be a left turn(very close to airborne), the ABS & PSM kicked in significantly. I'm not sure if it was necessary or if the system saved me from a bad crash down into a cranberry bog. After the Failure message and the ABS PSM lights were on, the front left wheel seem to not have ABS. I am guessing the ABS sensor crapped out? Also of note is that my scanner says they are no codes to report even though both ABS and PSM lights are on. Will the lights and Failure message clear out in time? Thoughts?

Thanks...I thought that as well...did a boost leak test everything was fine. This happened right after the car was sideways, I wasn't even on the gas at the time but was going way to fast up a hill with a left and turn at the crest of the hill.

If you turn off the car and start it again does it happen right away with the lights... and can you drive the car ?

Lights are permanently on, no codes on the scanner, power is normal, front left wheel locks up under hard braking(no ABS on that wheel)

+1 - No OBDII codes, but if the lights are on, the Durametric will tell you why.

If it ticks in the enigine bay it will be on one of the banks. That's a stuck valve on cold start.
