1999 RL – ABS light on and off

I have a 1999 Acura RL with 120k. Lately, the ABS light stays on right after the car is started. After driving for about a block, the TCS also comes on. If I drive around for about half and hour or so and turn off the car, when started right away, the ABS and TCS stays off. I have checked the fuse, connections under the hood and even try to tighten all the wheel sensors without any success. So if the engine is warm, the ABS light stays off, but if it is cold the ABS light stays on. Any ideas? Thanks.

Sounds like its a faulty wheel speed sensor to me.

Take it to a Autozone store for a free scan to be sure.

I may be wrong, but Autozone does not have ABS scanner which is different from a regular scanner.
