ABS light

[Guest]

ABS light came on randomly and stayed on throughout the journey home. Turned car off then back on upon arrival, and it\'s gone again.

Why?

Did any of your wheels spin? My ABS light will come on if one wheel leaves the ground and spins.

It\'s possible? Maybe? I reversed out of the Quay street carpark and began my journey home where there is a slight ridge/array of gutters/curbs.

Not that I noticed though.

This happens aaallll the time with my car. As stated above its really common if one wheel leaves the ground. Usually when i hit a bump fast or turning on crappy corners. I think its more common in lowered cars

Legends. Put my mind at ease rather quickly haha

I facepalmed pretty hard when a dash light came on just after a full service + new alternator :\'(

If it ever comes on and stays on, clean all 4 rotors (inside rear of rotor where all the notches are) and all 4 abs sensors with brake cleaner. They gunk up with brake dust.

[Marky]

first thought was goodness are you sure brakeleen is ok to use on there?

Took me a couple seconds to reconsider

Its almost as shocking as when I see cable ties used for the actual purpose of cable tieing

Mine doesnt. I cock a wheel regularly pulling into countdown/warehouse/driveways etc and it spins away till the lsd bites. Or just at speed?

I think there\'s a little more too it... mine does it on one corner in Wellington without fail if I put my foot down...

this corner is both very tight and very steep... the right front wheel get\'s very light at the same time as the left

rear... so the ABS seems to get confused. This is in my BG5 Legacy, and the ABS is S.H.I.T anyway.
