- Service brakes, hydraulic:antilock:control unit/module
- Manufactured:
- 05/31/1991 - 04/30/1994
- Affected:
- 12,091
- Defect:
- Moisture can follow the electrical harness and enter the pressure switch connector causing corrosion and malfunction of the switch.
- Consequence:
- The corrosion causes a deterioration of the electricalswitch connection and can result in false illumination of abs and/or the brake warning lights and/or the loss of power assistance because of no hydraulic pumpoperation. loss of power assist increases the driver's brake pedal effort required for stopping which can result in extended braking distances.
- Correction:
