ABS light on!
ABS light on!
Ok first my drivers side window regulator goes this week now my ABS light is on.
This has really been a crappy week.
I did the paper clip jump and the ABS light first flashed a 18 then 17.
I looked it up and got:
17 Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction
18 High Pressure System
What do I need to fix or look into fixing?

just a thought, save some money

I have one right now and it gives me a right front wheel sensor, and I think from my accident about 2 years ago, the sensor is now going bad and it only goes on when i hit 70+ mph on the freeway
sucks, I feel ya bro

i hadnt had any problems with the ABS light before i got my brakes done (except it would occasionally come on for a second when i broke real hard) but i had the rotors replaced and new pads put on, along with new calipers. they also bled the brakes.
well i was driving it a day later when both hubs came off the rotors (because i guess it wasnt pressed on good enough) and it ended up spinning around the axle and it broke off one of the sensors. They replaced it for me and since then i have had this problem with the ABS light going off around 70mph or so. I just had the master brake cylinder replaced too because it had no pressure and didnt hold pressure when i was stopped. now my brakes are working great, i stop great, but the damn light keeps coming on after 70mph....its really pissing me off.... :angryfire guess its back to the shop. who knows maybe the other sensor is messed too.

this just happened to my g/f's 97 2.2 last week. checked the fluid, was low so i topped it off. yesterday, came on again, checked fluid and it was low again. abs light is on and the brake light is on also and the pedal is going almost all the way to the floor when stopping. havent gotten a chance to check codes yet, but if anyone has any helpful info on what i can do, please help..... thanks......

Sounds like your master cylinder, a brake line, or a caliper is leaking fluid, been there done that twice, get it checked by a mechanic b4 her brakes fail on her like they did on me

same thing happened to me 3X and counting.... Rear passeneger Caliper leaks take it in get new caliper but on, bleed the system, lasts about 3- 4weeks and then the abs light comes on, fluid links and I almost die going through an interestion.
Im starting to think maybe its an issue with the pressure regulator on that line ?
Cant be three faulty calipers but the shop keeps fixing it at their cost saying it is.
yea i just went and had it looked at and its the pass rear caliper leaking right underneath the spring thingy....... ordered new one from the dealer, will be here wed......then getting fixed asap.... pays to have friends at a honda dealer, parts and mechanics.......
