91 Plymouth
Voyager, Anti-Lock Warning!
Q: How do you get the trouble code for the ABS for a ‘91 Plymouth
Voyager? Sometimes the light comes on while driving, but it will reset
when the engine is shut off and restarted. Also, do I have to drop the
fuel tank to get to the fuel sending unit or is there an access hole anywhere
on this same car (the low fuel warning & fuel gauge read empty even
after fill up).
A: Get
to the dealer ASAP! There are some major recalls on the anti-lock braking
system on your vehicle. The ALLDATA Information System shows several safety
related recalls and the NHTSA recently announced a major recall for anti-lock
brake problems on many Chrysler vehicles including yours. Do not endanger
yourself or loved ones trying to figure out why the warning light is coming
on!
As for your
fuel gauge problem the ALLDATA Information System shows Technical Service
Bulletin (TSB) # 08-01-91 addressing the following symptom: With the fuel
gauge indicating empty, it only takes 14 to 15 gallons to fill the tank.
The tank may have 5 to 6 gallons still remaining when the gauge reads
empty. This condition can also turn on the low fuel warning light.
The fix is
a replacement Level Unit Assembly and there is no easy access port; the
gas tank does have to be lowered to remove and install the assembly.
