ABS light, DCCD Light, Extremely weird clunking...

LeeC · 05-15-2008, 10:13 PM

About a month ago I noticed my car started clunking BAD at low speed turning, anything under 5mph, ABS light was on at the time, so I talked to my tuner about it and he unplugged the DCCD/ABS connectors under the passenger side dash. The clunking problem completely went away 100% right away. During this time I had no ABS, which came back to bite me

... So I plugged the connectors back in, the problem comes back right away. ABS light is on and so is the DCCD light. Haven't tested to see if ABS actually works yet.

The best way to describe this problem is that it sounds almost like when your DCCD is in manual and you are at very low turning speed, that kind of clunk.

Also, I did a nardi steering wheel in my car recently, getting rid of the black plastic piece behind the stock wheel, i believe this eliminated the wheel position sensor, causing the DCCD light to come on, when I fix my abs problem, will this continue to make my abs not work?

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

You really need to read all my threads about clunking DCCD I had the same problem.
If you ever broke a wheel stud or even messed around with your hubs/rotors then you could've easily hit one of your ABS sensors around the hub area which causes this problem. Please go to your dealership and have them check all your ABS sensors with hand held sensor monitor and see if that helps.
