ABS Light
That usually means it's broken.... ;-)
It helps if you say what kind of vehicle and it's mileage and age. There are different things to look for on a newer vs older vehicles.

When the vehicle is returned the light and the bills will be gone. Seriously, ABS is not a problem that is fixable by someone w/o a bit of training and/or experience, you really do need to see the dealer. |

I use spray contact cleaner and remove the air filter to make a little sink in which to work. Plus put some dilectric grease on the connectors after your done. -- -- DougW -- 93 ZJ 4.0 http://members.cox.net/wilsond HESCO Supercharger - 300W IASCA Stereo - Edelbrock IAS Shocks Gibson Exhaust - rear DCpower - custom gauge install - Stillen Rotors Banks Header - and BEER, in the fridge! |
