ABS activating at slow speed

Hi guys,

I know I have got a lot of miles on my car. I have been having the ABS activate when coming to a stop intermittantly at like 10MPH to zero.

Maybe once or twice a day.

I have checked the wiring and lines,nothing.

Anyone have this problem before, maybe I just have to bring it to the dealer.

ABS can activate at any speed if you lose traction.

It is not a traction issue. Mostly when turning to the right. at 5-10MPH coming to a stop.

It is kinda weird. I'll have to take it to Mitsu.

A couple of guys at worked looked for any signs of physical damage,nothing.

Might be a bad speed sensor?

Yeah, Stock rims and tires.

I just found out Evoscan has an ABS thing. I guess I can log it to see if it is acting funny.

Just embarrassing when people are in the car and pulling into a parking spot and they hear it.
