[knighthawks3]

i just bought my kid a 95 millenia type s with the 2.3 miller cycle engine.the problem im haveing is the tcs/abs lights on the dash are on all the time i have read lots of post and have tried everything that was recamended(clean/adjust wheel sensors,checked all vacuum hoses,ect)when i first got the car they were both working until i changed the radio.i have not tried jumping out the TBS and grd on the diagnostic port because there is no terminal labaled TBS.i have scowerd the internet looking for a sulution and have not had any luck.so any suggestions you can give me would be great because im lost at this point.thanks

is the ce lite on, too? if so, what codes? most common is 1525/26/40, or combo thereof

[knighthawks3]

no codes there was one for a misfire and a nock sensor both are fixed and gone.no other codes.what gets me is everyone else that has had this issue says there car loses power or dies,but thats not the case here other than this issue the car runs great

is the transmission shifting correctly? all 4 gears? lockup?

[knighthawks3]

for the most part.when its cold it will shift when its not suppost to but once it wrms up its fine.i due no your suppost to let turbo and supercharged cars run for awhile when its cold otherwise it shifts like that.

is it just the tcs off/tcs lite, or is the hold lite on too? if the hold is not on, then i would guess that you fubar'd a connection when you did the radio. if the hold lite is on, then you may have done something to the switch on the shift lever, and it is stuck in hold. if it was going into limp home, you would know it

[knighthawks3]

the hold light is not on and it works fine but if i fubard the conection on the button would that also turn the abs off?

[TravisJamesBarrett]

This sounds like a bad wheel sensor to me. ABS/TCS light on would indicate to me that it probably had a bad wheel sensor.

[knighthawks3]

i tore apart and checked all the wireing and conection around the button and everything looked ok.as for the wheel sensors i inspected and cleaned all of them.if it is a wheel sensor how would i test to find out witch one it is?

[bigb]

if it's a wheel sensor you get 3 lights

ABS, TCS, and TCS Off

If you are only getting 2 lights, there is a transmission code stored and you need a proper scan tool to read it. in this case it is probably a control solenoid that is on it's way out.
