Got a problem I need to solve. My 1993 Crown, basically a GS300 platform with the 2JZ, had been in storage for a couple of weeks here in Germany. The battery died and I replaced it, no problem. Now the TCS and ABS light come on and stay on when i apply the brakes. I think it may be wheel sensor on one of the rear wheels since TCS only affects the drive wheels. Anyone else experienced this or know the fix?

Nevermind it fixed itself when i cleaned off the wheels at the car wash. Dirty sensor I guess.

I'll try to get some pictures after I complete the body work next month. As far as mods go I have the R-spec air susupension controller and a custom made 3in stainless exhaust(loud). I got the car for free while I was stationed in Tokyo in 1998 from my in-laws. I lived in Tokyo for eight years total, what a dream come true. Since I have family there now i get to back for vacations and will end up iving there forever within the next 3 years. I had to get the exhaust custom made by a place called ATS-BM racing. No one offered a replacement for my car. Right now with the suspension I can ride the bump stops or go as high as 7 in above the wheels. My wife was driving it for about 7 months when we first got assigned to Germany and proceeded to dent and scratch the hell out of the car, which was blemish free when it rolled of the boat here. Gotta roll I've wasted enough of your tax dollars already.[URL=http://www.alljapanesecars.com/viewcr.php3?mk=Toyota&md=Crown&yr=1993&mc=JZS135] Try this link to get an idea of what my car looks like. Except I don't have the butt ugly mirrors on the fender.
