The wheel speed sensor that controls abs is down in the area of the wheel bearing.it is possible they didnt plug harness back in after replacing wheel bearing or the sensor was damaged in the process

Why is my abs and brake lights staying on? It's a 1996 Ram 2500. Checked rear ABS sensor and it's ok. Replaced rear wheel cylinders and emergency brake cables.

You need to have the code's checked to find the problem area . The ABS module can an will also turn on the brake light when there is a problem . That brake light is not just to show the parking brake is on, also low brake fluid in the master cylinder would turn it on . Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop .

Abs light on nissan pulsar 2005 model why

there is a code set in the abs module that needs to be checked out to help find were to start diagnosing. it could be a wheel speed sensor, poor connection, broken wire, problem with the abs hydraulic unit so the code needs to be pulled and system repaired to put out light, note that until this is fixed you have no abs working and your braking like a car without abs.

I have a 2001 Sequoia replaced connectors to battery. Now E brake light ABS light Trac Off and VSC Trac light are on. I disconnected ground and let it sit. Had code ran and it said open closed circuit abs?...

More than likley its your VSC computer (VSC Trac, VSC Off, E brake and ABS brake lights all lit). This problem has been sited on other Sequoias that had the TSB brake caliper/rotor upgrade (recall) and that more than likely the VSC software or computer was not updated to meet the demands of the newly installed brake upgrade.

I have a warning light on on the dashboard no manuel so I don't know what it is..... Can you show me the symbols??

okay let me tell you and i will try to show you them. first is the check engine light which is a yelloe symbol of a small engine, this means theres a problem with the engine operation or emmisions system. this you can go to an auto parts store and they will scan the cars computer for codes and give you a print out. i can help you further with the codes, next is the anti braking system which doesnt allow the wheels to skid in heavy braking or snow and ice, this symbol will say ABS.nextis the red brake light which will say BRAKE in red and will sometimes come on with the yellow ABS light this light if on alone means you are low on brake fluid, which means a leak or low brakes and you need to have the brake system checked asap, the rest of the light are low coolant, trac, which is in the ****** and controls the traction control, this light will come on if this cars has it when the abs or engine light is on because the computer shuts it done when theres a problem.hope this helps.heres a good site that will show you all lights and what they mean there are alot depending on the car. hope this is helpful.http://www.autoevolution.com/news/how-to-read-the-dashboard-lights-1370.html

1999 Olds Silhouette -- Problem - ABS & Brake Traction light "coming on" on the instrament panel. Brake fluid level "full". Brake pads & shoes "new". No brake fluid is getting to the REAR brakes....

The ABS light is on because there is a fault in the abs system, The traction control uses the abs system so it will also not work if the abs is not working. You'll need to scan the ABS module to see what code is stored in its memory. Once you have the code you'll have a better idea of what needs to be repaired.

This is urgent issue. Please help asap! Thanks! So, my 2002 Nissan Maxima SE died on road saturday night. The ABS light came on. No other lights came on. But the car lost power and stopped. This...

Hi
It means that there is a malfunction in your anti-lock brake system(ABS). Your abs is shutoff by your computer until the repair is made. you have regular brakes until the repair is made. Usually it is metal shavings from your brakes that covers the sensors which in a lot of cases are magnetic and attract the metal shavings. go to a shop have the code pulled and an estimate given to you for repair. Many newer cars are equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS) that prevents the brakes from locking up during sudden, hard stops. When the ABS indicator light on your dashboard comes on, it usually means that your ABS system isn't working properly and needs to be checked. However, your normal, non-ABS braking system should still are functioning.
When the ABS light comes on then most probably the computer has detected a problem and set a code. The code will stay in the computer even if the light goes out. You need to have the system Scanned for codes. Once the cause of the code has been repaired the light can be shut off by clearing the code.
Most auto repair shops will have Scanners and all the equipment to Diagnose and repair the problem. And, Most auto parts stores can plug in a diagnostic scanning device into your vehicle to read the trouble codes at no cost if you purchase the parts necessary to repair the vehicle from them. The trouble codes can tell you THE AREA where the problem is with your ABS system. So it's wise to have a Tech check that circuit to isolate what the problem actually is.
In order to reset this light you need to have access to a Scan tool that does more than just read the codes. Other diagnostic equipment may be needed as well.
You have a problem with the ABS. As long as the light is on the ABS is not working. The light will remain on until the problem is fixed.

Let us know if you want something more else accept the solution.

Both brake and abs lights are on. I've replaced both front wheel hubs, and checked all fuses.cant seem to locate the problem

you have an ABS code in the ABS computer. You most likely damaged an ABS sensor. even after myouo fix this you will need to get the code cleared
NOTE: autozone wont be able to access the ABS computer.

ABS/Brake Light on GMC Envoy Dash

Might save you a whole lot of time if you stop by autozone, or Pep Boys, and get the free scan & see which sensor may be faulty, or sending code. I've had mine trip from driving in nasty weather for a while before, and a trip to the carwash, and concentrating the sensor areas with spray, (back of wheels area) put light back out, next start.

2001 hylander abs light just came on brakes feel ok

your brakes will function normally, you just will not have abs until you solve the problem, the most common solution is a wheel speed sensor, if you can get the codes from the abs computer, it generally will tell you which one is faulty. If you can't get codes try unpligging each sensor and replugging them. could just be a bad sensor. Hope this helps!
