Ordered some new shrouds from TRS to update my retro. Went with panamera switchbacks this time.

Be sure to pull your ABS fuse from under the hood too. And some places might not take a unit that has been previously opened and messed with btw. So a donor from the pick-n-pull might be in order.Re did some of the bigger ends of the electronics on the abs module. Not sure if it will make a difference. Cleaned out all the old silicone, that is what took the most time. Went over with a exacto knife to get huge pieces. Than a dremel and finally some acytone. Used some isopropanol on the circuits just to clean up whatever oil I left. Ran a bead of silicone, let it set for about 30. Re-installed.
Started the car. The light was off! Pulled out of the garage and it was back on. I'll see if I can send it in now. Or pick and pull.
Might be a dumb question, but if I send off the ABS module would I still be able to drive the truck without jacking it up? Thanks to everyone that chimed in.
That looks great! What did you use to color match the bumper and also do you plan on using HID or stock bulbs in the headlights?

Did I miss a post? You gonna use yukon heads or denali heads?Ordered some new shrouds from TRS to update my retro. Went with panamera switchbacks this time.
Road trip?
I also believe the pink is a material designed to help the metal case dissipate heat without making electrical contact, which would cause short circuits. And although there aren't any obvious broken solder joints, I can say from previous electronics experience that there may be what are known as cold solder joints, which cause poor connections. You could try reflowing all the bigger ones by adding heat and solder. Don't try resoldering any of the surface mounted components or they will either fall off or get damaged. It needs to be completely sealed when you put it back together also or it will corrode. Your main problem now is that a repair place won't want to touch it
