I'm sooooo happy u bought this topic up!

For the first time today, the ABS light actually came on, and i was relieved knowing the problem from the forum.

Thanks alot guys.

Now how do i fix it?

it only came on for like a few seconds though!

Is it ok now? or will i have to change the clips or what-ever they are now?

Well if the light comes on, all it means is that there is a fault.... Somewhere.

In my case and many others, the source of the fault was a connector under the back seat. They can come loose. Just unplug and re-plug it just incase there is some crud on the contacts. In my case I noticed that it came on only when people sat in the back, and so figured out that it had to be either the back sensors or something in the back, and it was.

Had baby seat in yesterday and it didn't come on again, presumably because she only weighs about 9lb..... bless.
