I have a 94 Ranger XLT super cab 4x2 with the ABS light on. I pulled the code and I get a code 4 but searching the internet I can not find a list of what the codes mean. As far as I can tell this code means "RABS valve switch closed or open dump valve."
This information was taken from a 91 Explorer and was hoping someone had a book handy to look it up to be sure this is the correct meaning for the code.
I was also wondering, if this is the proper diagnosis, is the valve repairable or will I have to shell out about $130 for the valve assembly to have RABS back?
Some background on the light and truck: I purchased the truck in August of last year and the light was on when I bought it. The person who owned it before ran the truck for about a year and a half with the light on. Before this the truck was stored in climate controlled storage next to classic cars for about 3 years. My understanding is the light was on this whole time. The vehicle was purchased brand new in Virginia and spent most of its life there and only has 145,000 miles on it.
