I have a 328i BMW with ABS problems. For a while this summer while
driving I would get a vibration in the peddle while braking. Sometimes after a bit the ABS light would go on and the vibration would stop (the ABS would turn off). Now the ABS light is almost alway on. How do I determine what is the issue with my ABS brakes?

Thanks,
Mark

The first indication of a power issue is the ABS light is illuminated.

The ABS is very voltage sensitive, so if the alternator output is less than 14 volts the battery may stay charged but the ABS fails.

It will turn the light on and shut the ABS off.

Get your alternator tested.
