Re: I get the "ABS active light"... (devilfish)
Do you feel the accelerator pedal push back on your foot when the light goes on? If it is the only light that goes on (ie., the BRAKE and Service ASR lights don't go on), then it sounds like a normal condition. The sensors have detected wheel slippage and the ECM has begun taking steps to arrest it. The first step is timing retard to reduce power (don't really feel that), then the accelerator is pushed back, that one you feel.

When my shocks were bad, I noticed the lights (either of them) would be more active than normal. Just something else to check into. :yesnod:

This is what happens if he has the A ASR active light come on. He stated his ABS active light comes on.
