that happens to me...when that happens the motor thing in the ABS unit will emit a humming sound, I just pull the ABS fuse and wait for it to wind down and then plug it back in and it is fine.

that I'm not sure since I have no idea if it's making the noise or not since my car is kinda loud....the transmission brace transmits lots of noises from the transmission. But I'm sure when it makes the noise the light goes on.

Hey I go through the samething but with no sound. My mechanic says not to worry about it, that the sensors get dirty and you might have to clean them. I dont the light just went away and has never been a problem since then!
