Check your brake pads first,as they have a wear warning clip on them.so if you hear a loud screaming noise.Then its quite possible they have worn causing ur warning lights to come on.And i would get anouther quote as that is quite dear for a pump replacement.If it is the pump.good luck pippall!!

SOURCE: 2005 toyota prius abs brake not working warning

Hmm, I'm not sure what a main chip is but, there is a few reasons for this problem.

  1. ABS Sensors - there could be something wrong with a sensor and/or the wiring to them
  2. The wheel bearing speed sensor in a wheel is bad or intermittent which then tells the computer that wheel is traveling at a faster or slower rate of speed then the rest which in then the computer turns the abs light on.
Now when your warning lights go on, the computer sets a DTC code which is the key to helping solve this problem. If you can get the DTC (Data Trouble Code) from the dealership or from someone who can scan your can, I can better assist you in figuring out what's wrong. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Camry CE 2001: Changed the brake light in the

hi the rear high level brake warning light in rear screen ? works with the other two brake lights at same time when you press brake pedal with ignition on ? so may i suggest you check the other brake lights are working ? if not ? check these bulbs? reason being that from the symptoms you describe that high level light is staying on ? it would suggest that the brake light switch at the pedal is not operating ie not putting brake lights off when pedal is off and would suspect the brake lights have been on for some time and burned bulbs out due to the brakelight element in bulbs are high wattage if you check on what i have suggested? and is the case ? come back and will advise you how to adjust brake switch easy diy hope this helps? best wishes from the uk

Testimonial: "The bulb I used to replace the old one was of wrong wattage. The correct bulb solved the problem. Thanks"

Prius warning lights abs pressure brake

abs concern. abs light. also, red brake light. is this correct? drive axle was replaced. testing for abs codes can lead to a pinpoint test.
once codes are read, there may be a specific area indicated to run tests. since the wheel hub area was where the recent work was performed...i suggest looking at the abs exciter ring for the wheel speed sensor.if the teeth are broken off , and or smashed or flattened. the hub, or the ring attached may need correction. there may also be a speed sensor wire and sensor concern after working in that area. inspect the sensor, its wires, and the connectors that attach it to the wiring. take the result of the code check, pinpoint test, and physical condition of the parts into mind, and decide. report your findings. you will need a good quality DVOM test meter to perform electrical tests. and guided diagnostic from the applicable service manual.

I replaced the hub bearing assembly on drivers side twice and the light stayed on and the brakes worked fine. It was the wires (visible just above the tire on the frame) that rubbed against the frame that had shorted out. It was simply repaired and clip-stripped up out of the way. The light has been off every since then.

Hi

This is most likely one of 2 things 1 the abs sensor on one wheel is faulty, not uncommon cost about $80 for a new one. or you can clean the old one as often they get dirty from brake dust.

secondly the brake pads may need replacing, the ABS warning light is to let you know that these may need replacing, often when it is the brakes they will fel different as you press it down, sometimes they push back up towards you as your pushing down. I would have the back brakes checked as that is normally the cause.

you can still drive the car no problem.
hope that helps
Regards
Dan

How do i reset the ABS warning light and the rear light indicators on the dash?

usually when your front wheel bearing is wrecked the abs will go off.

cant reset the abs light till you change the bearing and get a new sensor..... if the bearing is the problem.

jack the front end up and see if you can wiggle the tire and up and down and see if it seems to wiggle in the hub. if the tire wiggles in the hub (not the suspension, in the hub) your bearing is worn out and the sensor has gone off. the new sensor comes with the new bearing.

good luck and let me know if i helped

Abs brake problem

I found my solution on the web a few years ago. My 2002 RVS had permanent ABS lights and no ABS.

It was suggested to check the ABS electrical connections at the brake disks . There are quick connects there and I found a corroded connector on the front passenger side. My wife started the RVS and put it in gear. With the brake pedal pressed, I wiggled the connectors and the ABS light went "off and on" right away. I replaced the connector and it never happened again. It is likely 4 years ago.

Worth a try.
