Hi Guys, new to the forum and LS ownership! Found a smoking deal ($400!) on a 03 LS Sport w/ 91k miles and jumped on it. Put a battery in it and it fired right up. Drove the car home to change all fluids (apparently car had been sitting a few months) and after a few miles the dash lit up like a christmas tree and the display shows ETC Failsafe mode, check transmission, check advance-trac, service parking brake, etc. I lose the speedometer completely and transmission shifts rough as well. However, the car still drives ok (minus the hard shifting) and will still cruise down the highway at normal speeds.
I read around online and seems the COPs are a common issue on these so I changed all 8. Car runs great but still get the ETC failsafe mode and all symptoms after a few miles of driving, or when car is hot. Doesn't seem to do it immediately when cold.
I put an Innova 3130 scan tool on it and get 3 codes consistently: P0108, P2106, and U1039. I'm thinking this points to the ABS module, or at least to a sensor/connection in the ABS system. I checked voltage and ground resistance at the module connector, and everything looked great. No harness damage or anything like that.
Anyone have any ideas? Thinking a dealer-level scan tool may give me more insight into any codes the ABS module may be storing, not positive that my scan tool is able to pull those.
Thanks!
