    Few weeks ago had the following lights on my dash pop up after some off-roading to my deer blind


    Pre-collision system unavailable
    Blind spot monitor system unavailable
    ABS system fault
    Traction control
    Cruise control unavailable

    Come to find out this wire popped out of its retention clip and has been touching the CV boot while I drive causing the wiring to get eaten away.

    do I need the whole replacement harness or is there a place that sells just the cables in sections?

    It’s hard to tell from the picture.
    But is repairing the wires a possibility?
    If it’s just the sheathing that’s rubbed through, you might just repair it.

    Are the wires badly damaged?

    Wires are completely pretty much 90% worn through at this point so I’ve wrapped them up in electrical tape but the second I hit any rough pavement all the faults come on.

    unfortunately my local dealer can’t get me in before I take holiday block leave on Friday so I’m going to have to try to fix myself here locally or drive the distance and fix when I get there.

    from what I’ve gathered the wire clips into a sensor in the hub and then runs up the suspension into the engine bay into another fitting so it would be a fairly simple clip into place and be good to go but I’m not having any luck finding that individual wire.

    Can order that on Rockauto.com. I installed an aftermarket one on @JaCado Tacoma and it has worked fine. I think it was only $30 or $40. Super easy to replace.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    those ABS wires are shielded. if the shielding is broken repairing it, while technically possible. is much harder. interference will cause ABS light almost immediately
