Re: anti brake light on ?

The antilock system performs a self diagnostic each time you start the car. Since the light remains on it has found a problem. I would believe that you have a bad abs sensor. You will need to have the car scanned with an abs capable scanner to find out. If the sensor is bad the entire hub assembly will need to be replaced as the sensor and bearing are a single unit.

The problem may be the hub on the opposite side. The right one went out on my GTP and when we scanned it the left one was bad too.
