Here's what I've done: resoldered the two relays on the 4ws module, didn't fix the problem, 4ws light is always on, I did the service connector procedure where you jump it with a wire or paper clip, the light blinks twice in a long pulse, goes off for like 4 seconds and blinks about 14 to 15 times at a fast pace rate, then stops and does it all over , it will do this all day if I let it to. Anyone with a Helms manual please help me find the problem.

Do you think you could've messed up the 4WS ECU when you tried to resolder it?

 

actually I didn't do it, some friend who does that stuff for a living did it, I'm not sure, I think the code is 20, cuz it flashed twice but at a normal rate, then 15 fast flashes so I gues it's code 20 and 15. thanks.

Did you even read the link I posted? Its tells you exactly how pulling the codes work. The 15 fast flashes mean its switching to the sub cpu, not a code.

 

That is the same code that my car was throwing and it would fail more often when it was hot out which is when I knew that it was definitely the soldering points. When I re-soldered mine though there were more than just two points that I had to re-solder.

 

I have a spare 4WS ECU if you want to try it. Pay for shipping and you can test to see if my ECU gets your 4WS to work again.

I would need a deposit on it though since I don't know you. Once I get the ECU back from you, I will refund your money.

Let me know if you want to try it.
