More thanks again Ricky Bobby; I appreciate the advice and encouragement. Yep, I’ll keep going a little further. I had eyed those rebuild kits before and I bookmarked “bagpipingandy”’s website. I read some success stories here in the forums with these rebuilds. It will take me several weekends to get the free time, but I will report back on the progress.
Question though – you mentioned that even with a newly-healthy compressor, “that you 100% need dealer software to reset the module, or equivalent. Unplugging the battery will not reset the faults in the SLS module”. Being frugal, I hate to spend a huge some to simply flip a flag. (or is it more complicated than that?) Can you recommend the least expensive software tool that will get this job done? I have read many a posting on the general subject, and my cost-digging shows CDs ranging from $50 to full blown hardware computers rushing $800!! I realize I may be able to use the more complete software packages for a variety of things, but frankly I want to fix this problem and sit tight budget-wise for a while. Now is not the time I can shell out more big bucks on this. Any suggestions?
