ABS problem
Hi folks!
I'm new here and was hoping I could get some tech help.
My ABS light is on, I've cleaned the brushes on the motor, I can make it run from the pin on the relay (#5) BUT, the relay isn't getting a signal to close. The fuses are fine, What else can I check or posibly reset? are there sensors on the rotors I might need to replace? What actually decides to send the signal?
I'm open to any ideas !
Thanks in advance!

Here is a thread on pulling codes. Maybe this should be "stickied" to the top of this forum...

There are many other threads, including some with little diagrams showing where to stick the paper clip. Just do a search - Steve83 seemed to be the biggest contributor in this area, so you might want to search his posts.

Very handy, I wish I would known that last week when I took it in to have a throttle position sensor diagnosed.
Unfortunalely, I don't see any ABS codes listed, no codes no diagnosis.
The truck's a 95' w/ 351

Search the forum - ABS light comes up for discussion all the time. Might also check rear speed sensor on top of the rear diff.

I wasn't sure if this is done w/ ignition off or on, so I tried it both ways. w/ ignition off it did nothing steady on. if I started the engine if blinked 4 times and pu the engine to a high idle..
