Long story short this is how to get the fault codes from the abs on my jdm v3 sti gc8
Theres a heap of info on the net but none of it was the same as mine
Step 1 . Find the 2 earth prongs hidden inside tape in the same tape around where the wires for the green n black diagnostic plugs comes from
They are black. And sheathed individually about 3mm round . They are folded back over on them shelves and taped up from factory. Mine had blue tape.
Step 2 find this black 2 pin plug that is smaller than the green n black plugs .
Jam an earth pin in the blue n white wire . (Nothing happened when i tried the other wire )
Turn key on . Abs light will give you the 10s n 1s for a code .
It can only store 3 codes even if you have more
Jamming the earth pin in and out at least 3 times clears codes .
My only re occurring code was 52
Under the motor on the abs pump where the cam actually drives the 2 plungers was bit rusty / crud .
Wd40 n a dung out and some grease on the faces it was good as again
The top cover and magnets come off the whole thing with no fuss . The 2x torx 25 you can see .
The rotor n brushed n next plate didnt want to come out but that's only because its sealed/glued into the alloy housing . A small tire lever against the rotor broke that glue
