The problem was the new rotter part was bad the abs sensor light was not on, but the reinspection of the new rotters showed that's the ABS interior part was bent or a manufacture defective part. Replaced rotter and new seals. Auto drives fine now with no noise or bumping to a stop. They tried to charge me for a system check test. I called Corp they said no Charge. When you have a problem with retailer just call Corp . It takes a few days to a week to resolve any problem you may encounter with regional or national chain stores.

There is a small part (Ford no. F6AF-18801-AA) attached to a coil mounting screw. This is NOT it! Lots of folks on the web have misidentified this RFI cap as the SPOUT shorting bar. If anyone out there has a 99 Exploder with… Read complete
