    Just wanted some advice on an ABS actuator replacement issue. After putting it all back together I get no change in the warning display signs, but most importantly it doesn't go into reverse or drive. Do I have a connection not fully engaged, or something else?

    Yes if that is the orange connection in the trunk. I thought I connected it correctly afterwards.

    There’s a really important step about bleeding the brakes after you’re done. It’s usually done with a computer and compatible tech stream type software

    When you did this did you have to disconnect the inverter in order to move it to replace the actuator or the pump or whatever or is this on the other side of the car that you don't have to touch the inverter?
