Re: abs brakes
Call your local parts places to see if they have a loan-a-tool program and if they have the code reader for brakes. You can do a visual check for some things. See if the anti-lock gear around the CV has any missing teeth. See if it is loose or out of place. See if the anti-lock sensor is loaded with metal fragments/shavings (it is a magnet). See if the sensor wire is broken.

Re: abs brakes
ABS light can also be activated by a low brake fluid level condition. Top it up right to the line of it's low.
I would look at that first. |
