Description of the problem | After parking car in driveway, abs motor turns on and stay on even after turning the key off, had to act quick to pull the 40 amp fuse under hood before the abs hcu motor over heat. Can someone explain why dodge needs a 40amp fuse to power a less than 20amp abs control unit, and why does the motor stays on when the ignition should have shut everything down. That could have being a fire hazard if i have let the motor stay running. Both abs fuse or pulled at this time so i can commuted to and from work without worry about the hcu motor running. *jb |
