| Apr 3, 2016 at 1:10 | comment | added | 3Dave | @Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 thanks! Autocross tomorrow. Ready to blow another engine. Codes posted, google indicates a bad ECU. I have a spare, and the ability to flash it, but t happens to be about 100 miles away at the moment. Also seems that other things wouldn't work if that was the problem. And the power steering pump is failing. Might just short-circuit the rack and go manual. Ha. | |

| Apr 1, 2016 at 10:42 | comment | added | Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2♦ | Glad you got your Solstice back on the road, David! I'd definitely look at two things: 1st is pull the codes; 2nd inspect the speed sensors and connectors on the rear. @Ben I think may be on to something. If those don't pan out, I usually chalk intermittent electrical problems to grounding issues ... finding the ground which is causing the issue can be very problematic, though. | |
| Mar 31, 2016 at 20:44 | comment | added | Ben | It sounds like somethings wrong with the IPC I'd recheck the IPC ground 1st. You mentioned heavy rain. Any leaks? Wet carpet? The IPC ground point is located under the passenger seat. Honestly though until you check to see if there are codes this is just a guess. | |
| Mar 31, 2016 at 20:41 | comment | added | Ben | @MooseLucifer I doubt that the calipers are causing the ABS light to come on. There would have to be a hard fault in the wheel speed sensor/ABS unit/wiring to illuminate the ABS light. If all those were working and say a wheel was stopping faster than the others, traction control would kick in. | |

| Mar 31, 2016 at 15:10 | comment | added | 3Dave | Yeah, it's interesting. Engine#4 now, which is really rebuilt engine #2. The front brakes are 6-piston Wilwoods, tears are 4-pots. The stock configuration is single-piston sliders all around, so the balance has definitely changed. Never had an issue like this after the front upgrade, though. :/ | |
| Mar 31, 2016 at 15:07 | comment | added | MooseLucifer | Sounds like a cool project car! I'm a novice with brakes, but could it be caused by a front/rear imbalance due to your Wilwood's having different size/quantity/volume pistons? | |
