i would replace the abs sensor first, chances are it will get rid of the modulator fault too as the sensor is probably not sending out the correct signal so the modulator isn't responding as it should so this will be seen as a fault. Same with the 4WS, change the sensor and it will probably get rid of the other fault. Id do one at a time though starting with the abs sensor as the 2 systems (abs and 4WS) are tied in together so changing one sensor may solve all you problems but i might be being optimistic there lol.

No ur being an input of information lol :lol: . I knew both systems was connected and knew that a fault in one can wreak havoc with the other. Which may explain why the codes have changed after reconnecting the battery. :?

also just another thought, which steering angle sensor is it?

Have you got the standard steering wheel on? aftermarket steering wheels can cause a problem with the 4WS or even a steering wheel off a 2ws prelude would cause trouble.

The original code before disconnecting the battery showed primary sensor, in the rack! My MT said he kinda expected that one as hes done a few back in the day, but not 4 codes in 2 systems!! Would love to get the 4ws working, save me tearing it out :lol: . It has the original wheel on it. :)
