Well was at the track today and while launching, or prior to launching or slightly after launch the car my line loc activated- via switch being triggered, So front tires locked car leaves and as I am accelerating I feel the car pushing to the right so I am trying to steer it back, hasn't dawned on me that the front tires are locked as I am still accelerating the car continues to drift further to the right now I am off the gas and on the brakes and the car is still going right crosses the center line takes out a sensor cone then goes hard left. At this point the wall is coming up quick but luckily I get it back and just miss the wall-( friend in the stands told me the front tires were smoking) so get the car stopped get out no fluids leaking and decide to make it down the track - car is lagging (front brakes at this time have been disable via the advance trac- get it off track to only then realize the line loc was activated. turn it off and drives much better but have no front brakes- nothing leaking . So my "service advance track light is illuminated" and I have no front brakes(I assume because braking is very poor)
So what do you guys think is it a fuse, the module, of something internal in the brake boost/abs block with all the lines going to it? opinions and thoughts are welcomed. thanks in advance. and sorry for such a long synopsis to get to the point.

Your mom
The service warning is because the advancetrac system did not see the front wheels turning as fast as the rear wheels for a given amount of time.

Pull the battery and it should reset.

In the future, tie an indicator lamp inline with the line lock circuit.

it is just not a light or lights- there are no power assisted brakes and believe there are no front brakes- I did disconnect the battery and when re connected the abs and brake lights came on along with the service advantrac and traction control lights that were previous lit up.

Who installed the line loc and how long has it been installed?
Solenoid stuck was likely cause and hope no system damage.
What brand line loc?
Good luck

jpc kit about 3 years old but car isn't a daily- maybe 40-50 uses. I was out of town for most of the week I need to dive in to now that I am back - I have a feeling it toast the module or the valves in the abs block feel like the front are just free pushing the fluid around , need to get the front jacked up on the front wheels and confirm if it doesn't have any front brakes.

well a lil update- bleed the brakes to see what was the problem with the no pedal pressure- after doing the front and then the back I know this is backwards- it was discovered that the abs module is leaking fluid from the module block assembly- never had any fluid leaking before we started the back brakes. new part on order hopeful this will fix it after module is replaced and the system is properly bleed via a computer.

Swapped out the module and modulator for the abs system (850$ +) for the parts - mixed the brake issue, now I just have to reset the flashing abs an traction control light. was only about a10 minute swap, took longer to het car on jack stands to bleed the brakes.
