Post ABS light

I hit a speed bump a little too fast and my ABS light came on in the yellow status.. I checked the manual and it basically says that my ABS is fine but I need to take it in so they can reset the light. How can I reset the light or fix the ABS myself???

Welcome to the forum.

I would say, unhook the battery for about 30 minutes to reset everything.

ABS has nothing to do with the V8 modular engine (which is the subject of this forum section).

You probably need to re-read the manual as that is NOT what it says.

Unfortunately, disconnecting the battery won't reset ABS fault lights.

Thanks for the Welcome.

I'm obviously new to this so I'm not sure what forum I should post this question in. Just looking for some advice on fixing the problem since reseting the battery will not fix the fault light.

All the Manuel says is to bring it in to get serviced. I want to know how they are going to fix it so I can check it out myself.
