Was the abs module ever corrected

[VX KAT]

Seems ABS unit issues have been coming up a lot recently. Found this older thread.

Saw this REBUILD on ebay for $99....anybody ever hear about anybody trying this? Seller has great feedback, but too many to search through to see if he's ever done a VX. It's a different outfit than the one Ganzman referenced.

Also, johnnyapollo said he'd been told our unit is NOT rebuildable....

Any thoughts?

i seem to remember hearing positive feedback from someone here about that guy..

really though for 99 bucks.. they could screw it up 29 times and you would still be better off than going to the dealer

problem with doing re-builds is that you are without an abs module for however long it takes.. in that time period you cant drive the VX unless you already have a second module. perhaps someone with a spare can get the ball rolling on a "send the next one here" kinda thing

VX Kat - Thanks for that link! I bought a "spare" failed ABS module from someone here on the Forum a year ago. Even though mine hasn't taken a dump yet, this is JUST the impetus I need to go ahead and send that spare off for a rebuild. $100 is cheap insurance to have on hand - like carrying an umbrella, I'll prolly never need it, LOL!

Hey Ganzman- How'd this turn out? Obviously guess you can't say how it works, but how was the workmanship, were they timely, etc...?

Looking into the eBay service, there is a lot of positive feedback, but as far as I can tell none for an Izusu. Google turns up a number of people that offer more or less the same service, although few lit Izusu, probably because there's not much market, so they either don't bother or don't know how.

Does anyone know what Bosch unit/series the Vehicross has? Is it the same unit as the Trooper? According to the rebuilders store, they look the same.

I also found that Isuzu had a recall for 98-99 Rodeo ABS systems and this comment and also concerning a Rodeo,

... the owners manual and they say to stop the car immediately. Shut it off, start it up again and for about quarter to half mile do not exceed 8 mph, go slow and the light will shut off. If the light comes back on, repeat the same. If it does not go off or it returns, have it serviced.

One site says cars can be driven without the unit. That makes sense if it's not working anyway.

Funny, I heard the same thing a while back from a couple of sources. Never gave it any thought.

As the great, late Tone mentioned in an earlier post, I too did hear, that if the ABS is at full light ON, the module is "most likely" not to blame, but possibly a speed sensor.

When FLASHING, the ABS module is failed as the circuit tripped and did not return from the module, meaning module failure.

Just what I heard.... I won't be held liable. .
