Light on is no indication of wear on brakes. Volvo has lots of issues with this. If you have a speed sensor code for the right rear wheel speed sensor that keeps coming on, then you need a computer. 35 years working on Volvo's professionally 98-99% of the time it is the control module-check codes first though

You should have a shop read the error code to be sure, but failures of the ABS computer are common on these cars. We pulled the ABS out of our 98 S70 and sent it to a shop in LA that rebuilds them. I don't have the shop name here but we found it on the Internet, I remember only that the shop owner has a Hispanic name.
Turnaround was quick. We put the ABS computer back in and it has worked just fine since then (3 years).

I have a 2000 Subaru Outback wagon with approx. 75,000 miles on it...about a week ago my check engine light came on...my gas cap was loose so I tightened it and the light remained on for exactly one week. ...

you can get pop up trouble light going off if the battery is weak or even low ,, have the battery LOAD tested, you could have one cell bad, so it would show 12 volts but not actually the required amps necessary, this would make the alternator work overtime, which would draw from the power it needs to actually run the vehicle

I have a 92 pontiac sunbird le 4cyl 207000 miles and driving home today the abs light in the dash just started flashing any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

When your abs light comes on it means that something is wrong with you ABS system. Sometimes the abs sensor get durty and can make the ABS light come on in the dash.

1995 oddessy abs light is on

ABS failures are common in the Honda Accord and the Honda Odyssey, especially during the 1995-1997 years. You will find that your ABS light will come on intermittently and then go out. Finally, the light will come on and stay on until the system is replaced. Honda has been charging owners about $1500 to replace the modulator and accumulator. Honda maintains that this is not a problem that is widespread. The Honda owners' notes show that the problem usually happens betwee n 50,000 miles and 100,000 miles. There is a buzzing associated with the system failing, too.--------------
try bleeding the ABS brake pump and check. You must bleed the abs pump, then reset the abs computer by removing the ABSB2 fuse.--------------

Thanks. Keep updated for any more query. You can rate this solution and show your appreciation

Light came on in the middle of a long ride (250 miles) no traffic, weather clear, car still brakes just fine

You mean the ABS light? It only shows the abs system is not working, you will still have brakes, but no anti lock. The light will not go off, it is catatonic. Till you fix it, and most people don't fix it, it is expensive, and a piece of tape over the light works good. My light came on 10 years ago, still on, no anti lock brakes, never noticed they weren't there. Hope this helps.

Air Bag Light, Brake Light, & ABS Light came on in the dashboard.

Check and see if your alternator is charging
Low voltage will cause those lights to come on, as the computer is shutting down.

To check your alternator you will need a volt meter... WITH the engine running you should have about 14 volts coming out. IF NOT you need to replace the Alternator!
