Unhappy Abs

Hey guys,

I was driving along yesterday when I noticed the ABS lite on.

I did a litle test to see if the ABS worked or not, nope it stopped workin...So i just kept driving....and then it went back off, now it has been going on and off every day, but when the light comes on, I loose my ABS...Any ideas why? Is the V.S.S sensor going out, or leaking gear lube into it?

Who knows, thanks all

it is normal operation for the abs sytem to become inop when the light is on, rear speed sensor is always most common cause (vss). I f the light is coming on and off while driving it is probably wiring or? to module, need someone with an ngs scan tool if that is the case (dealer)
