    i dont think its lost traction because you can have your foot off the accelerator and coast in a straight line and the lights still comes on.Thank you for your time.

    i had the shuttle valve changed on abs unit,the problem seems solved now,the light as not come on since.

  • Anonymous May 11, 2010

    The ABS light comes on most of the time. I had it tested by LR and it came up and said the contacts setting are wrong? My LR mechanic didn't know what to do. The brakes work in normal mode but when the ABS light stays off, the ABS is very senitive and activates on loose gravel. I have the Haynes Workshop and they do not mention any contacts that can be adjusted or replaced. Could it be relay contacts linked to the ABS? Help.

SOURCE: warning lights

My 2002 Disco was doing the same problem, I checked the battery terms. and realized they were loose so when i was driving down the road and hit even the slightest bump all my warning lights came on. i changed out the terminals and made sure they were tight and have not had any problem since. I hope this helps Tracy in Vegas

ABS brake noise at every braking; Also sometimes the warning lights(AWD Disabled) comes on while driving and other times the lights don' come on;;AWD still works tho.

Sounds like you need new brake pads , when the pads get worn it triggers the warning replace the brake pads reset the computer this should fix the noise and the warning lights.

Meaning of ABS light

On vehicles equipped with antilock brakes (ABS), a second warning light is provided to warn if a problem occurs within the ABS system. The ABS lamp comes on when the ignition is turned on for a bulb check, then goes out after the engine starts. If the ABS warning light remains on or comes on while driving, it indicates a fault has occurred in the ABS system.

What happens next depends on the nature of the fault. On most applications, the ABS system disables itself if the ABS warning light comes on and remains on.

Ford taurus 1996 3.0 ABS ligth on

Hello, These warning lights are pretty accurate. Autozone, Advance, and Oreillys give free scans although the engine system and brake system can require different scanners.

Check your brake fluid level first. The ABS system requires sensors which require counting the revolutions of each wheel. Sometimes the sensors may break, but they can be blinded by dust and debris.

If you have a broken brake pad, the warning light can come on. Often the Emergency brake pad, inside the rear Rotor, can fall apart and trigger an ABS warning.

You need to inspect both the front and rear brakes or take your car to a brake shop for evaluation. Sometimes you can get a free estimate, and some shops can charge for inspecting the Emergency brakes because of the work needed to reach them.

I have toyota sienna 2002 . ABS warning is coming on and off while driving. I checked with the local mechanic. He changed the wheel air pressure censor and changed the connecting wires too. but still the...

The wheel air pressure sensor only records the air pressure, the speed sensor or as its sometimes called abs sensor sends the signal that abs is engaged. When they malfunction it can send a false signal that the wheel is sliding or going slower than the other wheels which can engage the abs system or cause the abs light to eluminate. Have your mech check the speed sensors and abs system.

The ABS light comes sometimes no warning .No effects to brakes evident so why the sensor acting in this manner

The warning light indicates there is a problem with the ABS which, if needed (as in a skid), will prevent the ABS from properly funtioning. This usually does not affect the routine operation of the vehicle. Should have it serviced -- a common cause for this warning light is a malfunctioning wheel sensor -- but there are other causes as well.
