Hey All
My wife's 95 LeBaron has an amber ABS light that stays on continously. A few weeks ago she "stood up" in the brakes and the light came on and has stayed on. I did the diagnostics with the ignition switch and get the code 55. This code is not used by the computer (According to the factory manual). I flushed the brake system about 3 months ago with a Snap On Vacula bleeder/suction system. After reading the manual, I see that this procedure is incorrect, however, the time between bleeding the brakes and the ABS light has been at least a year. The self test "buzz" worked up until this heavy braking incident. I am kind of stumped, have not visually looked at the individual wheel sensors as of yet..... Any thoughts or experience appreciated.

Hmmmmm... when wifey ''stood on the pedal'', the force of the braking might have killed or burnt out the sensor... :wtf: :wtf:

Sorry about that I aimed to post back to first posted.
When a ABS light is on it is time to get it on a ABS capable scanner and find the problem.
The key on codes do not check ABS problems.
