oldscsc Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 I know the ABS sensors are a common problem on these cars, and before Friday, I didn't even know if the bulb worked in mine Well Friday morning when I was about to kill it I looked at the dash and the ABS light is on. Now I'm not very happy, more damn electronics to replace. But when I went out to leave, I turned the key expecting to see the ABS light on, and it was gone! Is this a precursor to a failing sensor, or just a little glitch? TIA Quote

Is this a precursor to a failing sensor, or just a little glitch? TIA That could be a sign of impending WSS failure. Could be water too though, was it raining? Also check the wiring for the sensor. Same thing was happening to me, and then I went and looked at the wiring for each wheel, and my driver rear harness was split in two! Quote
