I have 98 s/c 4x4 and my abs warning light came on. Anybody have any trouble shooting tips? Thanks for the help.

The sensor is bolted into the diff. Could always pull it out and clean it or check it.

Adjusted your rear brakes or checked them lately?

Buy an OBD-2 scanner, around $150, plugs into a receptacle under the hood, or go to a competent repair shop and ask them to hook their scanner up. Probably will cost less than the dealer doing it. Last time I checked the dealer was over $100 bucks for a computer check. All they do is plug the scanner in and look at the screen... pretty hard eh.
