VSC and ABS after Lift

Yeah i'm going to try what TacoVet suggested and if all else fails off to the stealership and hopefully it's not gonna empty my wallet

 

I'm also worried about doing that to many times because my buddy said that if you leave it disconnected to long, it can hard reset the computer and can mess with the shift points since i have an auto tranny.

 

It is believed that is a misprint when they say intelligent tester. It should say sst wire.
The intelligent tester I believe is part of of the 1/2 steps where you would use a computer to zero and recalibrate
You do nothing to the wires themselves and yes it is the obd2 port

 

ok that makes more sense, thanks man i'll update more later when i perform this

 

Disconnect battery over night while you sleep. Yes the shift points may reset, but its not a bad thing. You do the recalibrate for the VSC two ways, either with the intelligent tester or with an SST if you don't have an intelligent tester. SST can be paper clip or some wire.

 

Ok can i disconnect the battery after the recalibration or is it not recommended. Just trying to get as many opinions as possible before tonight when i get a chance to work on it.

 

When you re cal, make sure you are on flat level surface, else you may make it worse.

 

yeah that's what the manual TacoVet posted said. It said to be level up to 1 degree and thats it. Guess i'm gonna be at a few of my friends places seeing whose driveway is the best

 

Or a random WalMart parking lot

 

True that works. I'll be updating the results later

 

Hey https://www.tacomaworld.com/members/clayhopkins1.151014/ how'd you make out

I had the exact same issue, the driver's side wire appears to be long enough for everyone, its the passenger side that seems to be the short one. I had to extend the wires, once plugged in, had to go to vato zone and get the codes cleared then it was fine. Been running it for 2+ years now with the extended wires all good. Dont pay the dealership money to clear codes, get one yourself off Amazon, they are cheap or take it to an auto store that'll clear them for you.

I noticed that auto zone now puts up a fight to clear codes. Had an alignment done a couple weeks ago, the guys set off a lot of sensors cuz they had to knock mud off the truck, same codes as when the lines pulled out from the BL. Autozone refused to clear codes, so I rented the tool from them, did it myself then returned the tool. I am thinking about buying one to no deal with other people again.

 

ok apparently my garage is not even a degree of perfectly level so that's where im gonna do it. wish me luck

 

ok the paper clip thing didn't work so now i have disconnected the battery turned everything inside the truck on and im gonna wait 20 mins and if that doesn't work than im gonna find a auto parts store to see if they can clear the codes for me

 

Did you set the parking brake?

 

yes parking brake on, steering wheel centered, and transmission in park.

 

i even took it to the auto parts store and they said they couldn't find any codes on it so it's probably a dealership thing

 

I did this on my truck personally. What lights do you have on?

 

I got a 4 banger taco that i went with 5100's all around. I installed it myself and i happened to damage a abs sensor wire only. I got a replacement on ebay oem genuine toyota really really cheap. I installed w my friend just plug and play and i have a obd2 scanner that clears codes. I managed to clear the code and once i started the truck the light was gone. This abs sensor wires are very fragile.. If they get strech in any way the inner wire snaps and the wire is no bueno. Hope this helps
