Default ABS light comes on............

My ABS light came on and stayed on for the whole ride,,, after I turned off the car and started up later it was off. Any idea what this could be ?

Did you hit any bumps while braking during your drive? Not sure why they'd stay on the whole drive like that...

Nope,, no bumps,, just came on. The front brakes do feel a bit funny when I apply pressure when stopping, like they are a bit warped or somthing ! I drove it this morning to work ,, ABS lights were not on ..

Sometimes when you stop at an intersection and there is sand or gravel the tires slide a little and the abs light comes on. On my 92 the abs light would sometimes stay on until I turned the key off and when I restarted the car it would be off. Also if your rotors feel like them may be warped, they may be or it could be where they rusted a bit if it has been sitting for a while, this could go away, warped rotors won't. Have you had the wheels off lately? I used to deal with a tire place that would use an impact wrench to tighten the lug nuts and didn't do that properly and warped the rotors on our Deville once. good luck
