The diagnostics code it set is C1274 if that helps.

SIUlero is on a distinguished road
The wheel speed sensor wires to the right front wheel come into the harness right below the crossover/accessory bracket. Make sure those didn't get damaged when the new gasket was put in.

DTC C1274 VES Circuit Shorted to Voltage


Circuit Description
Battery voltage is supplied to power steering pump actuator terminal A when the EBCM commands the Electronic Brake Control Relay ON. Ground for the actuator is provided through EBCM terminal 18 to actuator terminal B. The EBCM controls the amount of current supplied to the actuator based on input from the ABS wheel speed sensors and the steering wheel position sensor.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
• DTC C1274 can be set anytime after ABS initialization.

• Excessive voltage drop across the power steering pump actuator driver.


Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• A malfunction DTC stores.

• VES is disabled and power steering returns to full assist.

• ABS remains functional.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
• The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists and the scan tool CLEAR DTCs function is used.

• 100 drive cycles pass with no ABS DTCs detected. A drive cycle consists of starting the vehicle, driving the vehicle over 16 km/h (10 mph), stopping and then turning the ignition OFF.

Diagnostic Aids
The following conditions may cause an intermittent malfunction:

• A poor connection

• Rubbed-through wire insulation

• A broken wire inside the insulation

• Open or short in any of the steering wheel sensor signal circuit wires

• Malfunctioning power steering pump actuator.

Use the enhanced diagnostic function of the scan tool in order to determine the frequency of the malfunction.

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that may be causing the intermittent complaint for the following conditions:

• Backed out terminals

• Improper mating

• Broken locks

• Improperly formed or damaged terminals

• Poor terminal-to-wiring connections

• Physical damage to the wiring harness

Diagnose and correct all ABS DTCs prior to clearing VES DTCs. Clearing VES DTCs will automatically clear ABS DTCs resulting in a loss of DTC history data.

Well I went back to the mechanic and we found the issue. He had forgotten to plug the harness connector back into the power steering pump. Couldn't understand how that would throw the ABS light.

the EBCM is going "wtf? theres something wrong with your steering!" and im sure there are times where if a modual could it would flash a light that looks like the finger... and not abs lol

Which is exactly why you shouldn't buy Dorman parts. They brake like mad!

Yeah but since they replace them for free I'll stick with it until it fails another time or two.

I also prefer to call the actual fluid "coolant".

Last time I bought a Dorman part it was because the OEM version was crap too (on a Toyota Camry).
