Default ABS Light is on

I tried to do a search, but the search engine won't include ABS for some reason, so it only uses light, which brings up every light in the world that has been discussed before.

My ABS light is continually on. Where should I start with this one? I have read that some wheel sensors may need to be cleaned? or that the whole control module (computer?) may be bad.

Suggestions? So far you guys have really helped me nurse this Burb back to health. I might even keep it now!!

The forum software will only let you search for strings > 3 characters. So to cheat use a wildcard. In this case search for:

abs* light

This is also handy when searching for 4wd.

Thanks for that "Cheat Code". I try to use search before bothering everyone with a question that has already been answered.

So, and ABS scan will show which part has the issue? Wonder how much that'll cost me.

The scan will steer you to the area that requires further diagnosis. It won't necessarily tell you what part(s) is defective.
