ABS / AirBag lights on

Invictus · December 21st, 2006, 11:45 PM

tonight it was raining and i'm getting some new tires this christmas so I did a few burnouts and i noticed my ABS light turned on.. after turning the car off and on it was still on but after running a few minutes it shut off, my breaks still worked fine even when the light was off.. i don't think ive noticed it before was just wondering if this is common/normal.

also, this has nothing to do with tonight but just recently (couple days or so ago) my Airbag light has been on and hasnt gone off, hmmm?

The ABS light came on because of the wheel speed differance
when spinning the tires, wouldn't worry much about that.
The SRS light I would have checked out, if the lights on the system is in fault mode and won't work if needed.

yeah i figured the ABS light wasnt a biggy i've just never noticed it before so was just checking. hmm wonder what trigered the airbag light.. i noticed my horn didnt work when i tapped it a few days ago but it works fine now and the light is still on. might there be a short in there somewhere or something? ahh i guess i'll bring it somewhere

Sounds like a possible steerind wheel or colum prob.
Thats what all those have in common.

If your airbag light flashes and then stays on ,plus your horn doesnt work,it may be your clock spring.

As far as your BAS light,your VSS could be malfunctioning or a wheel sensor could be an issue. Especially if the car vibrated at all.
