OK, my GS911 gives me fault codes
INTEGRAL ABS-2-CAN
24048 Pump Defective
24049 Power supply to pump motor faulty

I'm not one to run to the dealer, have always been able to handle most issues
Im in process of removing the unit, have elec/lines disconnected, all mounting bolts removed, unit is loose:
however problem is like trying to get a 50 cent pc out of a dime sizes hole
I found a u tube showing removal from a GS, but looks like the surrounding area is different from my RT

any one have experience in this??

Yes, it is very tight working quarters. The most common mode of failure is that the motor brushes lose contact. Before you remove the unit, try tapping the motor several times with a small hammer (I said TAP). This will allow the brush springs to realign the brushes. Worked for me and I rode for another 20k miles trouble free.


There is a shop in Idaho that will rebuild it for you.

thanks for input, wish I had asked more first!

I was able to finally wrestle it out, just had to take a break and "reboot" my attitude.

I called Module Master, and for $250.00 + shipping, and with a 5 day turn around, I sending it their way tomorrow.!

I have some concern that the other fault code said "power failure to module", but have no clue how to test that on the canbus system

Thanks for input.
Ill post results of the "rebuild" after I get it back on 2 wheels and the light stops flashing!
 
"Power failure to module" is the error that gets generated when the motor brushes have lost contact. Of course, it could get generated due to a different failure as well. Best of luck to you, but you should get back an ABS module as good (or better) than new!

Hello, I just received my re-built ABS unit for my 07 r1200r last week. ModuleMasters did a great job, very impressed with their workmanship! I was having the same fault as you, sometimes my ABS fault light would reset after cooling overnight, but eventually the fault light stayed on. After install, I used the GS-911 to bleed the ABS pump, now all is working great. :dance
 
bleed using GS911 ?

How did you use the GS 911 to bleed?
 
GS 911 bleed brakes

Thanks Lee: I have the 911, use it for reset after oil change, sync and etc but not bleeding
Its nice to be around smart people!
 
ABS. Thanks to all who helped

Larry: Very beneficial input.
I have had the CD for maintenance since bike was new. Never needed the “service” part til now.
Bike has 80+ on it, been to AK 2 times, never failed me
I will order the service CD tonight.
Thanks again
Also learned another use for the GS 911 from Lee
Thanks to all !

Sorry for the late reply, the gs-911 cycles the ABS pump to bleed the air out of the front and rear circuits of the pump. you will still need to bleed the calipers as normal. hope this helps.
