My 2001 Chevy Monte Carlo

3400 V6
DTC C1216
tech = JK
question = Service Traction system as well as
ABS light on.  DTC Code
1216.  What does this mean and how much is the repair cost generally.
Do you know what the problem is.






JK:
The EBCM monitors the On/Off state of each solenoid and recognizes when the
ABS is in pressure decrease too long. This fault indicates that the EBCM was
unable to decrease brake pressure enough to a certain wheel to prevent excessive
wheel slip.

Some testing would need to be done to determine if a sensor problem , or an ABS
valve assembly problem.
2004 Chevy Silverado 1500
5.3
ABS light and brake light
codes = Possible co265, co244 and co267
tech = MW
question = Tue my wife parked my pickup in the garage and the ABS
motor mounted on frame rail kept running so i had to un plug it . I taped
on it with a hammer to see if something was stuck but keeps right on
running. Hooked it up to computer.. and those are
the codes it gave us..
so what do i look for?


MW:
code c0265 is a loss of communication. This is usually cause by a poor ground that is
located on the frame, beneath the dr. side door. This code usually does not cause the
motor to continue to run.
The other 2 codes are a problem in the brake control module(EBCM), which controls the
motor. This is your likely problem. If the ground is good, and no corrosion in the ABS
connectors, then most likely the EBCM is faulty.

The abs light comes on and the traction control light goes on/off when put in drive
it make a ding noise while driving   but not when in park.

Possibly a bad wheel speed sensor. You need to
get the computer scanned for codes.
