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.
