Hi All:
On my 2001 LC, it has developed an issue this week.

Driving above 30- 35 MPH and turning RIGHT, on a dry road surface, the SLIP CONTROL LIGHT (vehicle image with skid marks) lights up and the alarm sounds for about 3 seconds. Scared the heck out of my wife, as it also seems to apply the brakes to one of the wheels. As sson as it straightens out, no issues.

When I push in the button to lock the differential, the VSC OFF light does not light up anymore. It used to. I can only assume that these two issues are related?

Tires are brand new.

When I turn the ignition on, all the lights light up and once the engine starts, they go away.

I am finding information on wheel speed sensors, but any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
 
Hi All. Here is the update. The mechanic has found that there is a problem with the circuit board inside the ABS Module. It seems that the module is integrated with a bunch of other sensors, and that seems to be causing the issue.

Does anyone know of a place that can repair the ABS module, if it is sent in?

Or, does anyone have a good source for a replacement ABS module?

Any suggestions are appreciated. Also wanted to mention, that this only happens in one or two places that we drive on a regular basis. Cannot replicate it on every turn. Also, ONLY RIGHT turns!

Thanks
