ABS warning light help
I recently purchased an 03 C5, auto with 30,000 miles.
My only issue is occassionally, only at start up, my ABS light comes on and will remain on until I turn off the ignition and restart the car again. I tried starting it various ways to see if the light comes on under a specific start up method.
Sometimes I have my brake depressed when turning the key and sometimes I just turn the key to start without depressing the brake.
It happens both ways but only about 50% of the time. Currently, I'm on a good streak with 5 statrs without the ABS light coming on. It will eventually appear again, when I don't know.
Is there anything I can check to see if that corrects this PITA issue?
Thanks for any input.
