Hi there
Been doing lots of reading and cross referencing and I think I know the answer, but would like to confirm.
ABS and Traction control light will always stay on a while after start up (30+ secs or so). I can hear a pump going for it from under the hood (could be either the suspension or brake pump .. not sure as both fitted and both plugged in).
While the lights are on the pedal is soft and not much braking is had even with the foot to the floor.
When lights go off the truck brakes on the button (new pads and disks all round and calipers cleaned and greased).
Every now and then the pedal will go softer, and sometimes the ABS/TC lights come on and the brake pedal is so soft it will go to the floor at the slightest touch and little/no braking will happen.
I can hear a pump going on/off all the while the truck is running. As said I am unsure if it is the EAS or brake pump. Haven't looked that far.
Am I right this is early signs the brake accumulator is on its way out?
Cheers
Neal
