ABS, traction control, brake, and check engine lights are on dash. The scanner found no codes for engine, but it is unable to connect to abs system for some reason, fuses seem fine. There is some incomplete monitors from the battery being dead I suppose, but I need to get all the lights off the dash for an inspection. It was parked because of a brake line that broke coming from the master to the ABS, I fixed that and bled the brakes with a hand pump.

Hello,

It seems like the data link connector is not working, does the scanner work in other cars? let check for power and the ground for the connector, I have seen the ABS control module cause this issue, but it would be nice to get a code out of it so we don't start throwing parts at it. Here is a video to help and I have marked the wiring to check for power and ground for the connector:

Both black wires should be ground, and power should be org/pnk.
