ABS code 86

Post by Gmanflying »

Hello,
I have a 1993 Chevy G20 Van with ABS Code 86 (a short in the anti-lock warning lamp). Any suggestion of how to fix this?
Thanks

If it's a short in the lamp circuit, then you need get a multimeter to measure and find it. You'll need a wiring diagram, and possibly remove the cluster. Maybe the bulb is just starting to fail.

Are there any other codes besides 86?

Thanks, the other code is a 13 or a 14 which I don't think is a problem. Ill double check.

Codes 12 and 14 aren't trouble codes, but may appear to indicate normal operation.
