Replaced the left hub that was indicated as defective, but it probably wasn't!

Do you still have the rear hubs from the drum brake axle? If so, swap they out and put them back on the side they came off. It should not matter, but just to be sure!

I never followed up on this. So, after literally 5 hours of going through the wiring harness, plugs, connections etc, it finally came down to a single pin in that big multi-pin connector at the module not making complete contact with the the other side of the plug. Somehow it lost it's "spring". Tweaked that pin ever so slightly and haven't had an issue since. Go figure. Did I mention I hate electronics?

:-) Yep. Just can't quite figure how a single pin had an issue though.

Actually pretty frequent. If you took it to a dealer they would insist "the computer is bad" blissfully ignoring that when they plug the new unit in the fix the pin. I submit that almost all replaced computers are really a bad pin, especially if the connector has ever been unplugged then replugged. There is even a TSB about bent and pushed out pins. The EBCM and ECM are frequent culprits.

And the TCM along with headlights and abs axle hubs connectors. Funny you can get a part out of the parts yards and it’s the same age and been sitting for a couple of years and no bent pins, but the parts a mechanic just inspected mysteriously have bent pins, clumsy in a hurry? No dielectric grease?
another place is the fuse box .
