Nissan Consult Cable/software Thingy

[siddr20]

Hi all

I was wondering if someone can help me out with a issue im having.

My abs light has turned on. I have checked all fuses and they seem fine.. Checked under the car if the sensors are loose etc..

Dont know what else to check really.. Oh done the slam the brakes and try and lock up thing.. abs didnt work or kick back in..

SO

I was wondering if i could borrow the consult cable or if i can come to you?

Will be greatly apprieacted. Probably wont take long. Just need to find the error code.

Thanks all

I have one, If you have the software.

I have the software somewhere but not sure

I had the same problem. Bought a second hand ABS pump off the forums and put it in. Problem solved.

Consult cable should tell you the exact cause though. Sensors going bad is another common cause I think.

Ohh really? Whered you get a 2nd pump from?

I will check the sensors first.. Well i will see what the error codes are first and go from there

How mcuh was the pump anyways?

[Primordial]

From my hazy memory it was $80 or so

Edit: Yep... just looked it up:

Supposedly from what that guy said in that thread they are $4500 new... I find that hard to believe... Maybe the whole kit is, but not just the pump/motor!

[siddr20]

I will check my error code first.. then check if its the relay..

If not, then will try and source a pump thingy.. You got a pic of this btw?? What does it look it lol

I have access to a 33 gtr abs unit lol.. If worst comes to worst will this fit into my car? lol

[Primordial]

It looks like this (circled)

It's that whole unit.

Surely you'll be able to find one in one of the wrecking threads, or post up a WTB thread. Get the error code before you go to too much trouble though. It could just be a dirty sensor!

[siddr20]

Isnt that the whole abs unit?

So what exactly did you purchase? a "pump" meaning what?? What does that look like..

Yea i will check error code first before anything else

[Primordial]

Yep, thats the abs "module". I -think- it incorporates the hydraulic motor (or "pump" if you want to call it that) as well.

That unit circled is the bit that I bought for $80. I chucked it in and my ABS light disappeared so that whole unit was the problem in my case.

This is exactly what was written on the invoice for the brake place I took mine too when they diagnosed the fault:

"Scan ABS Module for fault codes. Code 21 - ABS Motor. Checked ABS wheels sensors for operation, all ok on current data. Suspected faulty ABS motor unit"

[siddr20]

Ah that makes sense.. just wasnt sure what you meant by pump..

I will try and get the error code first and see how i go!!

Just happened out of know-where.. Turned on the car one night to go home (been raining that day and previous day) and the light came on..

Could be coz of the rain.. making the sensors go faulty.. hmm
