ABS: diagnosis ABS light

[Tippey764]

thanks for this, but sadly i thought this was for the actuall abs system. my light turns on after 5mins of driving

What do you mean? This is for the abs system? I copied this stright out of the OEM honda manual for our cars

The abs light will always come on after driving its never " always on ". my brothers car has a sensor cut right off and the light still dosent come on untill you move the car down the street.

My abs light didnt flash when I did this. My abs light stays on all the time and I got a bad leak that something in the abs system is causing.

Wow man, this is great! I'm gonna copy and paste this shit for sure.

Sticky?

...too bad my ABS dummy light's on already though...well it goes away after I shut the car off, but I think I need a new sensor on the pass. side

1. If your check engine light is on, start by going to your passenger side kickpanel.
There should be a blue connector w/2 wires to it like the one pictured below.



Put a paper clip, wire, connector in it to connect the two prongs.

2. Put the key in the ignition, and turn the key 2 clicks to the acc on, where all the lights light up on the dash.

3. You will now watch how many times the ABS light blinks.

4. Compare to this list to see what the problem is:
