ABS light stays on 95 Cabrio

« on: December 07, 2010, 10:32:33 AM »
The ABS light came on yesterday and stayed on.  We are total noobs, and don't even know what this light is for.

Any help?

Could be several things causing the ABS light to come on.  I have a factory scan tool that can read the codes for it if you wanna swing by sometime, i can do a quick check just to see what the fault is causing it.

I keep the scan tool here, at work.... come on by some time.  It may take some time to figure out a problem, but the codes are quick to retrieve, i can do that while you wait.... kinda like window regulator "fixes"....  :D

Are you still there till 5:30 or so?  I drove another car today, so I'm going to run home and try to make it unless you leave earlier.
