    I have an 06 Columbia, and the ABS lights don't come on when running the self diagnostics when I switch on the ignition. Fuses and bulbs are good. I can hear the valves clicking when I switch on the ignition. Any ideas?

    check fot M136 codes with diagn button. if u can see codes ABS unit is power supplied and it is OK, so u probably got faulty bulb, ABS -e throws WL code

    if not - check ABS unit power supply in dr side pillar

    Hey Pablo I checked the bulbs and fuses they're ok. When I hit the ABS CHK button in the drivers side pillar tractor abs light came on dash and went off but doesn't cycle when you turn on the key. DOT requires this to work. I got written up for it last week in Alabama.

    I can hear the solenoids clicking with the key turned on. It's a Wabco but I don't know the part number.
