How to disable ABS dash light?

Hi,

Just the other day my ABS dash light came on. My 1994 Accord EX now has
152K miles on it and still runs like a beauty. I have read quite a bit
about the potential ABS problems with the Accord on the net and it
sounds way too expensive ($1000-1500) to bother with. I never liked ABS
anyway. I have checked all connections, fuses and fluid but no good.
Does anyone has any idea how to disable the ABS dash light? It is
driving me nuts!! Thank you.

Dave

 

Thank you for the link!! I was able to find the ABS computer and when
disengaging the two wiring harnesses that go into it I was able to
disable the ABS completely and remove my dash light!!
Thx!

 

Electrical tape.

Cut off a small piece and stick it over the light.

Problem solved.

 

Hi,
Checked brake fluid level? Low level can cause ABS light.

Hey, Dave,

For about $5 in brake fluid and an hour of my time I changed the brake
fluid on our '95 Odyssey and the ABS light now stays out. The old DOT 3
was fairly dark, and there was a bit of air in the system. (Heaven knows
whether the previous owner read the manual)

It's very nice to know that the 'Stomp-N-Steer' will be working next
time my wife needs it. I'm not a great proponent of ABS, but I'd rather
fix the problem NOW, by following the prescribed maintenance schedule,
rather that risking LEGAL complications down the road in the event of an
accident. If you ever fall into a tank of sharks, be especially careful
of the lawyers. . . . .

Oh please, I have been an Alaskan driver for 20 years before I even I
had an ABS eqipped car. I think I can handle braking in bad conditions.
No doubt you may be be one of our Alaskan tourists who in about 15
incidents a year wraps their rented RV around the bottom of Turnagain
Pass.....If you bothered to read my original email you will see that I
did check all the obvious bits and pieces. On a blue book valued car now
$2250 why the hell would I be dumping a bunch of diagnostic testing cash
for something I also originally said I do I even care for? If you choose
not to assist when someone asks for it, just find somewhere else to
troll around....

Anyway, Curly thank you for your post.

No hostility, just common sense: If he didn't want a car with ABS, he
shouldn't have gotten one. No sensibility there. Turning off trouble
lights instead of fixing the problem is just plain stupid...but there
are always other people who will aid and abet his stupidity...the
world is full of them except that America has more than its share.

If the ABS light is on, there's a problem...fix it. It's that simple.
Disabling the light instead? How half-assed can you get?

It wasn't funny then

I see an ass, who doesn't know when a joke is being presented to him.
