I've searched here & not found a thread for this, so forgive me.
I've had an intermittent abs light for months, brakes great, abs worked.
I repacked my hubs two weeks ago, and reset abs wheel sensors when done.
I noticed the abs light went off most of the time, as it should, but would come on at times just driving down the road.
I found several different threads re: clearing abs faults with a jumper. (affectionately called the blink test)
Example was a 1997 DI, like mine.
Screw it, I did it, it seems to have worked fine.
I tried all the manuvers that likely would cause it - I cannot get it to trip on.
I jumped terminals 5 & 15 on the obd-II (5= fifth from right, bottom row -- 15 = 2nd from left top row) KEY OFF
Get a pencil ready, KEY to run (pos 2) watch abs light blink.
It will blink 2 digits, giving you the fault
It was that simple
I hate typing (honest), so do a search for "abs blink test" or resetting discovery abs faults, etc.
There's lists of fault codes and methods for other DI's.
luck,greg
