ABS light is on

[Jeep1975]

Hi

I have my ABS warning light on, it does not work (it slips when braking)
I do more road than TT ... I think it helps if it works

I have no faults in the suitcase

How to cure it ?

Thank you

If the ABS light is on, there should be fault codes.

Have you started by inspecting and checking the brake fluid level?

I'll pick this up....

Fluid looks full and good.

No fault codes showed up in regular scan with my OBDII scanner.

The abs seems to be working, which i've found to be dangerous on slick roads as has been noted.

Best fix is to simply pull the abs fuse?

You could just disable ABS, yes. If you wheel it doesn't really serve a purpose.

It may be that you need a more sophisticated scanner that takes into account ABS codes. I know not all of them do.

or maybe go to the parts store to have them read it...

Not a bad idea honestly

Back before I did my axle swaps and still had functional ABS it would light the light on occasion. It was always a wheel speed sensor fault. Typically spraying the sensor and tone ring with brake cleaner would fix it.
