NikpV Posted April 14, 2006 Report Posted April 14, 2006 if on all the time then probably a sensor fault or missing the sensing ring on CV joint - search(see above) for 'abs light' - all dates - all forums Quote
johnb80 Posted April 15, 2006 Report Posted April 15, 2006 The sensing ring would only show up when the car moves, if it's on all the time, not just after setting off it's more likely an ECU / wiring problem. Not sure if open circuit sensors would bring the light on straight away, double check the connectors, unplug them, make sure theyre clean and dry etc, especially on the wheels that have had the recent work done.
