ABS question
I have a '98 Explorer XLT with a 4.0L SOHC engine. This morning when I was driving to work I noticed the ABS light was on. It went on and off in conjunction with the tackometer working and not working. This is the first time I've seen this. Anyone know if the Tack is essential for the ABS to work? Is there a wire that might be loose and if so where is a likely place to start looking.

Thanks
Ed

I would look at the connectors under the steering wheel into the fire wall, inside and out next to the motor
