It activates when I hit the brakes even when the wheels don't lock up. In any case, I have disabled the system, but I want the warning light off. What is the easiest way to go about this? I have done a search and can't find anything on disabling, or diagnosing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.   Mike Goodell (Mikegoodell) Member Username: Mikegoodell Post Number: 83 Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Friday, August 22, 2003 - 11:13 am:    Check the ABS sensors on the hubs. Pull them out, clean them off and push them back in as far as they will go. If they get pulled or jarred out to far that will cause your problem.

Any links with instructions? Thanks.   marc olivares (Pugs) Member Username: Pugs Post Number: 123 Registered: 12-2002 Posted on Friday, August 22, 2003 - 12:31 pm:    by disabling, do you mean that you have pulled the anti-lock fuse and now you want the light out? if so, pull the bulb. if not, please clarify. marc   Peter Matusov (Pmatusov) Senior Member Username: Pmatusov Post Number: 1027 Registered: 09-2002 Posted on Friday, August 22, 2003 - 12:39 pm:    if light is all that bothers you, here's the solution -   Justin Slazas (Gettingbetter) New Member Username: Gettingbetter Post Number: 13 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Friday, August 22, 2003 - 02:22 pm:    My solution is to adjust the steering wheel down enough to block the light. Out of sight, Out of mind. Right?
