abs light and also sometimes the red brake light
 

just wondering my 2001 cdt tourer has had the abs light come on mostley it will go off on start up then come on when starting to drive it think its a rear sensor.
sometimes when the abs light comes on i also get the red handbrake one comes on with the brake faliure on the ipk. fluid leval is ok and brakes ok apart from the abs side any idears

take it no one else has had this problem then :shrug:

My light came on Monday am, went off monday pm, back on tuesday am, went off tuesday pm and stayed off for the 100 miles since then.

The only significant event I can think of was on Sunday the car slipped on a bit of snow triggering the ABS to operate as it should.

Now I'm wondering if any trapped air in the ABS system could have triggered a fault light? Don't know though, but I do think it a bit strange that just this week at least 4 ABS threads appeared in the forum.

Damaged ABS Cable, faulty sensor, faulty hub, or ABS modulator. In my experience an ABS fault that comes and goes can often be caused by water somewhere in the system can take over a week to dry out, never discovered how to cure it myself other than waiting.
