I seem to be having an issue with my ABS light in my 2000 Focus. I believe it came on when I was trying to debug a noise comming from the front end of the car. Had the car on a hoist and and let the wheels free spin to detect the noise. I was told there was a way to reset the light, but have not found out what that procedure is.
I also read a document that mentioned something about the ABS light automatically resetting itself after driving successfully down the road. I don't feel any issues with my braking in the car (everything seems to work ok still), but the light is still on.
Is there anything special I need to do to reset the ABS light? I already tried unhooking the battery for 10 minutes and that didn't seem to fix it.
Maybe it's possible that one of my sensors have gone bad? If so, is there any way to find out which sensor it could be?
Thanks,
Dave

You can hook a scan tool up and retreave any stored codes.
