<![CDATA[ABS comes on all the time]]>For the last few months, through snow, ice and completely dry pavement, my abs has been coming on each time I stop. Anyone have any ideas of what I should check and what I might be able to do to make this stop?
Car is a '98 Accord EX.

The ABS system is one of the simplest systems out there that uses the light to inform you, like your engine but much easier, of what is going on. The codes in it are limited to a few areas which could help fix it. Go to one of th eparts stores and have them scan your light for you for free (or you can come and see me and have it diag at the same time for $15-30 depending on how long it would take), and let us know what the codes are, Ill be able to help try to lead you in the right area to head to.

I don't know if I'd rip it all out. I would just unhook the fuse that powers it. Theres alot of plumbing involved in totally removing the whole abs sytem in most cars.
