ABS light.....checking ABS codes?

Readings old threads, some people suggest that you can check the ABS codes by jumping terminals on the diag. box. Others say that you must have a code reader to check codes.

I've had my ABS light on ever since I took the unit out (to install a torque brace) and put it back in. I put everything back in how it was, but the light has stayed on.

After I installed my springs, it was pretty low and rubbed on the fender liner. I pulled it out and found a broken grey connector. I can't find the other end of the connector, it's 2 wires and in the pass. side front wheel well.

So can anyone confirm that I can check ABS codes and how to do it?

OK so the FSM mentions the ABS tester, but nothing about manually checking the codes.

I haven't heard of anyone checking the ABS codes. However, IIRC the ABS ECU only cares about the wheel sensors and itself. So, if you have the the ABS light one, it's only one of a small handful of things.

Sounds like the wire you found may be to the sensor for that wheel.
