hey all, I`m finding out the joys of owning the 9-5 slowly but surely, this info is relatively new to me that GM thought it would be a wonderful idea to equip the 9-5 with plastic idler pulley wheels... well just so happens one broke apart destroying the serp belt, and pressure built in the radiator reservoir and the cap on the reservoir tank let the pressure fly. radiator fluid landed over everything in the vicinity including the abs brain that sits under the fuse box. which comes to my question.
currently fixed the idler wheel however the abs,tcs, explanation symbol, motor lite are still on. tec 2 says no signal from right front wheel. so what is it... did the radiator fluid destroy the brain, or something else. by visual check the sensor to the right front looks fine, the wire running from the right front sensor is intact, cant see any signs of the serp. belt hitting anything when it was disintegrating. thoughts?
and, has anyone found aluminum,or steel wheels to replace the plastic ones?
