I know this “I just installed a lift and my ESC light is on” stuff is getting real old.
So to start I have read everything I could find on this subject.
I do know about having the steering wheel centered with the tires pointing strait being set by the drag link.
Used two 6 foot long pieces of 1 inch tube strapped to the tires extended out so you could really tell if the wheels were strait. Took my time and used several methods to really get the steering wheel strait with the tires.
Pretty confidante that it is really close. I don’t know just how sensitive it is but, real close.
Upon startup I turned on the key and waited a minute as I had removed and drained the fuel tank and wanted the fuel pump to charge without trying to start it up too soon.
As soon as the engine started and all the other light’s went off the ESC and ABS remained on.
I even reached down and pressed the switch for ESC, it had no effect.
This vehicle has not been moved out of park and the parking brake is still set. Not driven at all.
Note that I had removed the brake lines and replaced them with the longer stainless braided ones supplied.
Used a vacuum bleeder and tried to make sure I got all the air out.
It seems like I have got good pedal. Have not driven it to confirm brakes at this time.
Have read something about an ABS bleed being done only at a dealership?
Does anybody have any ideas?
Please help if you think you may have an answer. Thank you!
