Default ABS/traction control problems after tune..

Hey fellas,

Intstalled C&L intake with a 91 tune from brenspeed over the weekend, and it rocks.. Just one problem,
after 2 days of "normal" driving my ABS/traction control sensors have come on in the dash and are not responding. I reinstalled tune, but to no avail...[sm=smiley25.gif][sm=smiley25.gif] Any advice on clearing these would be greatly
appreciated...

Might be a problem that has nothing to do with the tune IMO

Very true, reflash to stock and then see about the lights. Then call brent if they do not come on at stock.

man...i ordered my CAI and tune also..
havent gotten them yet, but reading these posts makes me really nervous
cuz we (in suriname) have NO ford dealerships( no decent other shops either) and you can't send stuff back to the states ,...you can...but that's gonna cost alot because you already pay import fees!...
our fees are ridiculous ... (uhm...84% on any car above $25000,..so ya with what i paid i could've gotten a shelby gt in the states..maybe even a gt500)... so i reallly dont wanna f*** with my stang...dont wanna leave it all stock either though..

So please post the actual problem when you figure it out (hopefully it;s not the cai and tune).

Problems with tunes are veryuncommon. You should have no problems.

Update-
I reflashed to stock but lights sensors still on, I'm going to reinstall stock intake, with stock tune tonight
per Brent. If sensors are still on, the problem can't be the tune... I let you guys know the outcome...

Is it possible that you bumped the ABS lines when you were installing the heat shield?
