You are asking me to subject myself to public humiliation, Tony. Here goes:
It was suggested to me that it was okay to continue driving the car without the ABS module if I took the precaution of removing fuse #38--the main ABS fuse.
A week later I received my rebuilt ABS module from Module Masters and installed it. After a drive I noticed that one of my codes had vanished, but that code 71 remained. I contacted Module Masters and they assured me that the unit had been fully tested before they shipped it to me. They suggested I take a look at the fuses. Having already done that three different times, I was skeptical what help that could afford, but went ahead anyway.
Opened the fuse box. Where is #38?? D'oh.
