#1: abs light help Author: stu861, Posted: Mon Oct 28, 2013 1:23 pm ---- Hi guys just a quick one (i hope) driving home from work and my abs light came on and brakes definatly feel abit different, stop off into sainsburys hoping it would be fine when i got bqck in. Nope it was still on, then it went off, then it stayed on all the way home.
Is there anything i can check or common faults to no about before taking it to a garage??

Wonder if the rain yesterday could have been a factor?

You will experience intermitent faults like you are having in the mean time.
