2007 FORD ESCAPE
2002 Ford Escape. Consumer writes in regards to abs recall notice. *smd the consumer took his daughters vehicle to the dealer, after receiving a recall notice in the mail. The consumer informed the service advisor, the abs light had been coming on and going off for a while. Upon the return of the vehicle, the abs light was on continuously. The consumer returned to the service desk and reported the issue and he was informed he could leave the vehicle for diagnosis, but there would be a fee of $ 130.00. The consumer refused and then took the vehicle to a local repair shop. The local repair shop informed the consumer, the problem they were encountering was an abs code B1676 which was a result of no electrical power to the abs module. The repair shop stated, because the light would no longer go out, that the current situation was caused by performing the work on the recall. They also explained, that the recall that was performed was to add power to the junction block to supply electricity to the abs module in such a way the vehicle would not catch fire, and that power was not being supplied to two of the wires at all. The repair shop discovered there were two incorrect splices performed at the dealer. Apparently, there were two splices that should have been made and the mechanic only put a heat-shrink tape on the connection and did not electrically connect the wires. After the repair of the two splices, the shop found that one of the two wires supplying power to the abs module still only had three volts at one of the connectors. The shop found additional recalls as well. After inspecting the harness per the recall notice, he found the insulation on some of the wires damaged and one of the wires was corroded internally causing the low voltage problem. He also noted that the inspection cover on the connector had been removed for inspection and the master cylinder cap looked newer and not the original. Additionally, when he removed the connector from the abs unit, there was no grease applied in the cavity like the

Engine light went off.Ran obd2 scanner to double check codes. Code P2503 charging system low voltage . Took battery to advanced auto parts had them test it. The coca should have been 650cca and was at 11cca so bought a new battery. Next day took son to school less the 2 miles ran fine on my way home it died 3 times this time i would wait a few minutes then restart it. Check engine light never came on started searching on line and and calling mechanics. So bought new alternator. Started the truck to warm up after 5 minutes it shut down again waited a minute and started back up did it again. This time the battery light came on. So after searching many people were saying the fuseable link was bad so went to Ford had one ordered installed it to day. Battery light still on started it ran for 5 min and died again.

Yellow abs light and red brake light come on daily. Yellow air bag light comes on weekly. Took to Ford dealer 10/1/11, found codes C1185, 1198, 1194, 1254, 1246, 1250, 1248, 1214, 1210, B1869, B1470, U1262, B1676, B1246. Internal module failure, recommend replacing ecu (verbally quoted $1,000 over the phone). If red brake light comes on, i think it's the abs module, but if something is really wrong, this could create an 'unsafe' vehicle on the road.
