ABS light?

[insanity007]

The ABS light has come on in my mrs. car and it's on all the time now. Can anyone tell me what might be going on. Is there a way to test the ABS to see if it's working still and if it's the connection to the dash or not?

make sure the ground wire on the abs pump is still connected, i had mine get disconnected and the abs light stayed on

The funny thing is that i recently removed an abs sensor in my car and a few days later the light has still not come on ???

Where is the ABS pump?

Nevermind I found it and checked all the wiring and it's fine. Is it related to the "antilock brake" light?

I've checked all of the fuses in the main fuse relay box and the one by the driver's footwell. No busted fuses.

I opened the little black box next to the ABS thing and everything in there seems fine.

When I test the multimeter against the ground and the +12V battery terminal I get voltage on both the end that is grounded to the car and the end that's grounded to the bottom of the black box.

There are 2 plugs that connect to the black box. One with 2 thick wires and another with about 9 thinner wires. The one with 9 thinner wires looks like a plug that can support 12 thinner wires but not all of them are being used. I tried using the multimeter on the ground and through each of these wires and none gave me any voltage. Is this supposed to happen or is there supposed to be voltage or is voltage only applied as the car is breaking?

Any more info would be REALLY useful as I'm completely stumped at this point ???

You will find not much info coming forward really as most people dont play with nor have issues with the ABS set up..ABS=Antilock/Antiskid Braking System

If u have the ABS light coming up on the dash then it has found fault in something.could be a wheel sensor,speed sensor,ABS pump,handbrake, many many things

there is away to get the code out but I have no idea how
