Hello dear friends, after a couple months saving money finally bought a scanner MaxiCOMmk808. I scan my car and found some DTC and I would like to help me to repair my car. I want to show you DTC and follow your instructions step by step. I can’t move the car because it's hard to operate the gear shift and it sounds like click. It’s difficult look on the video but when put the gear shift lever P to D or R the car moves very abruptly. Morning. I was thinking and I have a idea. What do you think if we start the troubleshooting with the DTC U0129. Regards from Panam City.

U0129 - Lost Communication With Brake System Control Module. I would start by checking all fuses and if okay let's replace the ABS control module. here is a guide to help check the fuses and the instructions below so you can change the control module out:

Mr. Ken, it’s a pleasure see you again thanks for your time and experience. I was checking the 2 fuses in the engine room relay block and are ok. I was watching some videos on website and I would like to check the wiring diagram on the plug brake system control module (BSCM) grounds and positives. I know you are the expert but I would like to check that part. I forgot to tell you a part of the engine was under water.
Take care.
