I only checked the fronts, but they are still bolted on. Nothing looks out of place.

clean and re-seat the ABS sensors


it's a literal ring.


if cleaning them up doesn't work you might have a bad sensor.

you will need to have the abs codes pulled to see what is exactly the problem
a basic tuner can't do that.
you need an abs tool. most repair shops have them.

Damn thats a lot of work! lol

Do I even need to check the rears? I really dont want to unbolt those Slicks right now! And is it safe to drive with the abs light on until tommorow or tues night? It just means I wont have ABS right?
