Anti-Lock light popping on.....?
Anti-Lock light popping on.....?
Guys
Today on the way to work, I was just cruising down the road at 75mph or so, and I had to slow down for construction. The construction speed was 45, and I didnt get on the brakes real hard. Whenever I got down to the speed limit, I noticed my "Anti-Lock" warning lamp had popped on. A few seconds after, it went back off.
I made a few small turns and stops while making my way to work, and I noticed it came on once or twice more. I know typically when you're low on brake fluid you'll get a warning lamp while turning, or under heavy braking, so I wont rule this out, but its usually not the "anti-lock" light that pops on when you get this I didnt think. I did a search on "anti-lock" and it didnt really come up with anything.
Any info is appreciated, thanks!

This can be caused by a faulty ABS/wheel speed sensor or a bad line leading to them. Any brake changes recently? In other cars I have had the dealership has been able to pull the code and determine what is failing.

im having the same problem..car wouldnt even start but it was one of my wire connection..i fixed that.. but when i got it started the anti lock light came on. i drove it home it started to dissapear then it came back when i stop at the light..so how can i get this to go away..realli dont want to go to the dealer..how did you get yours to go away..how much did the dealer charge if its not under warranty. i have little more mods than you have...thanks in advance
I think i actually discovered the problem today..........On the way to work, i noticed it didnt do it at all...
I also noticed the lights on my Defi LINK were not on, but the unit was functioning. I had jiggled the wires back there, and apparently there was a loose wire on the harness for the LINK. This wire had came completely out as of this morning. The metal tab had broken, it is my understanding that maybe the wire was just hanging on by a thread and causing a bad connection, which was also why my boost guage kept shutting off. The boost guage didnt shut off at all today either
