the 1st steps are.
check fuses.
1: scan it, scan the ABS with a scan tool , the with those facts. work those (eash has differnt path)
2: if the brakes on the car are bad, the ABS will not be happy.
so fix brakes first.
lets say scan the ABS, and it shows right front sensor is dead.
well,? youd correct that first. oops wire cut there....

the FSM covers all this, and the steps.

Why does my ABS light stays on and sometimes i get a vibration in the brake petal causing my 2002 Cadillac escalade not wanting to stop?

The light being on means the system has detected a problem in one or more sensors. The vibration is the ABS modulating the brakes to prevent skidding because it has detected a wheel that is locked up. That wheel is most likely the one sensor that is giving you the error.

How do I tell what brakes system does my 2005 Cadillac sts have ?

Turn on the key and without starting the car if you have ABS which I am positive you do....the ABS symbol will light up on the dash cluster, most all those Caddies have ABS/power Disc brakes.

Abs, Brake comes on at times along with Traction light 2001 cad. STS

sounds like you probably have a bad ABS sensor or a bad or grounded wire going to the sensor. the sensor is located in the wheel bearing hub next to the axle behind the tire.

I have the same car and had the same issue, you will need to replace a wheel bearing hub assembly. The speed sensor is more than likely bad. I actually had the problem yesterday, and I replaced the hub today and it cost me $142.00 = tax for the repair. It's not hard to do, if you have the tools. Hope this helps
