    Had the abs light come on for about half a day ONCE since 04...And that was on a day when it was WELL below zero temp.
    Later the same day, it went out...

    I'm on my second module & the light has been going on/off for the last couple months during cold weather. I'm over it... if this module goes out, i'm pulling the plug

    I like to drive my vx a "little aggressively" so I like the peace of mind that I have anti-locking brakes especially in slippery conditions. I would really really like to have a functioning ABS on my baby.

    I would really like to get to the bottom of this and find out if my proton has a sensor/wire problem or abs problem. So basically I should replace all to make sure? Is there a step by step diagnostic procedure to figure out if its the module or not (aside from taking it to a dealer and getting reamed)?

    By the way, I found an older thread where a guy claimed to be able to rebuild them to where the module was like or even better than new. I sent him an email and he replied back with his contact info. I haven't called him yet but am about too during my lunch break...

    I said in the email:
    Hi, I read on our forum online (www.vehicross.info) that you claim you can rebuild an ABS module like or better than new. If this is the case, can you give me some details? I have a 2001 Isuzu VehiCross."

    His reply was:

    I'll call him to see what he has to say. But I also read on that same forum several people saying that the VX ABS Module cannot be rebuilt.

    Is it this thread you're referring to?
    I asked this guy x3 and he said absolutely he can rebuild our unit for $99.
    I have a dead unit sitting in my garage that I was going to send in...but wouldn't have anything to test it on....and I don't want to remove mine which is "currently" still functioning.

    I found the information. Please read through this thread - it presents a very easy and informative method of checking the code AT HOME, with NO TOOLS!

    Please updates us on the code your's is throwing. I would be very interested.
