Need help PLEASE!!! 2012 F250

meuth0001 · Jan 16, 2016

Ok guys I'm kinda stumped on what to do next. The truck 2012 F250 was involved in accident drivers side front. Damage wasn't terrible but it did set off front bags. I have the truck completely fixed... But I'm getting a Christmas tree of codes on the dash. Parking brake light, traction control light, abs light, service advanced Trac message, also it won't engage into 4wd. The truck start and runs and drives great. When plugged in to the modis (scan tool) it give me a code u0121. Curious which way to go know??? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Is the ABS fuse good?

Are the connectors into the ABS module clean and good?

Is the wiring to the wheel on the damaged corner good?

Have you tried disconnecting the batteries for 10 minutes to force a computer restart?

Is it tuned?

Im assuming your insurance covered it so based on that assumption....id call my ins co and explain what was going on. If i got the run around...my next call would be to a lawyer.

Rcm will cause all of this. Was it replaced? Any time air bags go off it needs to be replaced.

RCM was re programmed and reinstalled. The air bag light was on before and after the new bags, rcm, seat belts, and from impact sensor the air bag light went out

Abs fuse was good. I haven't checked the module connections. Where's the abs module located??

It's not tuned at this time

Abs module would be on the lh frame rail in the wheel well area. About right under the master cylinder.

Thanks very much guys. Looks like I have my work cut out for me now

Guys I found a smashed brake line on the block above abs module. It was mashed flat. The line said it was right rear anti lock Brake. I'm hoping this will fix some of it. I also found a wire that was half broke but not all the way.

Did you fix the wire too? The wire is probably more of the issue.

meuth0001 · Jan 24, 2016

Fixed the wire too. Is there a such thing on these trucks that the dealer maybe has to reset some computer settings after a wreck?

It may be pssible that the body shop didnt get the rcm programmed or something like that, at least not properly if the airbag light is off. I do believe that there is certain ivd i itializations that need to be done in order for everything to work properly. At least that with the other stuff, i havent had to do one on a super duty yet, but im sure we run the same things through the rcm that we do n other vehicles. It may be worth it to take it in and have it diagnosed before you start spending a bunch of money on stuff you may or may not need. The brake line and repairing the wire were obvious, but abs modules aint cheap.

meuth0001 · Jan 25, 2016

I decided this afternoon when thumbing through the same wires again that the truck is going to the local ford dealer. Even though i don't want a big bill It is out of my control now. I will for sure let you guys know what I hear!
