We'll I have the brake failure light. No ABS. I have some questions. Has semper fi done any tech tips on this? Are people having good luck recently with module master? What special tools will I have to have to remove the abs modulator? and then to bleed brakes? Do I have to have the Fault computer? And last has anyone just used the bike as a non-abs bike? Thanks

Whit,

Hint - it's LOTS easier to answer a string of questions if they're put into separate paragraphs.

This is my answers without paragraphs: No. Yes. None really. GS911 would be nice. Nor necessarily, but if you want to activate the ABS bleed, yes, it would be useful - can be done with the GS911. Not that I know of.

There'ya go.. :)
 
What was your fix

My brake failure light comes on after 125 mile ride .......Happened twice now.......If I shut bike down and restart its fine for about the first 100 miles...What was your fix? I also have an 07 RT......
 
Check simple stuff first, such as a chafed wire running to the abs sensor. Not an uncommon problem.
Good luck.
 
Take a hammer and whack the back of the abs motor a couple of times. That should reseat the motor brushes. In time you will need to have the abs unit rebuilt or replaced, but the hammer trick will work for some time.
