Hi to all...I'm new to the list and from Australia with my 94 Disco...The problem I have is the ABS light take a while to go off and some time when stopping at slow speed...the ABS kicks in like the wheel is locked but it's not...Does anyone know how to test the sensors?

Thanks in advance

Rob

Sorry, I had to take mine to the dealership. Tried different methods but everything failed. Dealer charged me $40 to analyze which sensor was bad.

My fathers explorer does the same thing, but actually he has a slightly worn caliper so that could possibly be the problem.

The abs light is supposed to stay on when you first turn the car on until you hit 5 mph. The system is doing a self check up to that point.
