Re: Will awd work if abs fuse is pulled. 2002 astro.

I did check for front end play and it feels very tight. Friday I did get a co265 reading. So I just pulled the fuse again and cleared the memory.Im happy with the ABS out of the system. I may even put in a switch to disable the AWD because even in winter here, the roads are kept well cleared. Howeve...

Re: Will awd work if abs fuse is pulled. 2002 astro.

Sand or gravel. Nice! I hadnt thought of that. Millions of acres of corn around here but theres corn on all of them. Maybe a quarry. Quarries we gots! Lots of quarries around here. I was thinking maybe Id put the van up on blocks and start it up and grab a back wheel. But I could imagine looking lik...

Re: Will awd work if abs fuse is pulled. 2002 astro.

Thanks Lifted. Very much appreciated. This makes my day! I read the discussions from 2009 but the opinions on that were mixed. The ABS has been annoying so I cleaned off what little rust there was at the passenger side sensor. But the problem worsened. The front brakes failed at low speed, but the r...

Will awd work if abs fuse is pulled. 2002 astro.

Howdy from southern Wisconsin

Greets! Ive been reading these forums for on and off since I got my 02 Astro in 09. Its been running almost flawlessly but lately it has developed the usual ABS problem of groaning and pulling to the right. So I thought Id join you all and see what I could learn. These vans are tough little guys. Mu...
