dr_mat 0 Posted December 28, 2006 You can do some basic diagnostics yourself, such as using an ohmeter to read the resistance of the wheel sensors - they should obviously not be open or closed circuit, you want to see around 2k ohms for each one. Other than checking the sensors you can't really diagnose it without plugging it in .. so if it's one of the other components, you won't know till you get the diags port hooked up.
