Hello all,
I am new here and I am pretty sure I may have seen a thread about this but.... I have an issue. I keep seeing that my 91 k5 is "supposed" to have either ABS, or more commonly RWAL however, I do not have any wheel sensors or any other indication that I have any form of ABS and I am not sure if it was an option. I pulled the build sheet on it and there is no RPO for any ABS or RWAL. I have a black module next to the brake booster, but as far as I can tell, it only affects the brake light function and cruise control. I have the common "E brake light at 36 MPH" problem. Here is what I have done so far (as I had a rear end shake anyway):
1. Replaced rear drums, shoes, wheel cylinders and hardware.
2. Replace front rotors and pads.
3. Replaced brake switch.
4. Bled the utter crap out of the brakes.
I imagine the next step is to change the prop valve, but it looks damn near brand new from the p/o and is don't think that is the problem.
My questions are:
1. Does my k5 actually have any ABS?
2. Can a bad brake model cause this issue?
3. Is the loss of cruise control the result of the issue?
4. What is the next/cheapest step to find the problem?
I could just take the bulb out, but then I might as well remove the brake module and wire up the brake switch.
