Default line lock / abs issue

Installing my line lock solenoid, my brake guy calls me and said the (F) right and (L) rear wheels lock when engaged.................................


I had him install it going from the REAR master to solenoid to ABS block....

I gave him a WTF but he was adamant about it.
  • Could my abs block be doing this?
  • Are my brake lines from the block hooked up wrong?
  • Brake guy on crack?
BTW
I've searched for 2 days and haven't found a post about or like this.

I'd say your brake guy is on crack. If he did the install properly, only the front brakes should lock up.

I'm going to hook it up myself and see. I only hired him to do the dirty/oily crap but I guess, "if you want a job done right"...

We'll see...

Which is why no one touches my car but me. A line lock install if the lines are preformed in the kit are almost idiot proof to install. I don't see how he could have messed it up.

The only possibility that has come to mind on this is that my TCS caused a rear wheel to lock??? I'm sure he forgot to turn it off.

Possible???
