ABS light

[rokntoy]

I have a 96 tahoe with the abs light on. How can I get it to go off or do I have to take it to a dealer?

need a scanner to clear the code.

but most abs codes come right back so you will need to find out why its on.

might be a wheel bearing going in the front. this is the comon cause up here in the north east rust belt.

any good local shop other than dealer can do this work also. no need to go to the dealer and spend big money.

Hey jason, check out parrish tire in Dobson. Two of the guys that work there are members on the board here. They will take care of you.

Probably a wheel speed sensor. The abs module is separate from the PCM, so either a dealer or a shop with a TECH 2 scanner will have to check/clear the code (Not the same as the little scanner advance/autozone has).

take the bulb out

newer gm also trip the brake light bulb when abs is active for a code.
