I have found that when the ABS light comes on in a Ford,,,,it has something to do with on of ABS sensor monitoring the the braking system itself.

Update: I found this on other Theard....Hello,

Newbie here!

Wanted to ask if anyone has had to replace their ABS Module and done so with a refurbished one. I know from following the forums for a while that the ABS module on the Windstar has been a major problem due to heat warping the casing and circuit board.

I just had mine inspected due to lights coming on dash and pulled code 1185.
Local repair shop wanted $1200 to install, program, new module.

Found a local shop that sends in the unit to have the circuit board resodered and guarantees for the life of the unit for around $550.00

Curious if anyone else has gone this route to fix the ABS module issue?

Thanks for your feedback
Sterling--

No, have not taken it to get the codes read. I have an All-In-One USB Scan Tool that I connected today to my laptop into the OSB2 connector in the van. I was able to read performance things, RPM etc but there were no falut codes shown.

I guess I need to look around for an ASB module and probably go on from there. I am surprised that there were no OSB fault codes.
