Test 24: Abs Warning Light Problem
Check GAUGE fuse. Replace as needed. Disconnect connector "D". Turn ignition on. Check voltage at connector "D" terminal No. 3. If voltage does not exist, repair open circuit between GAUGE fuse and connector "D" terminal No. 3. Ground connector "D" terminal No. 7. Turn ignition on. If ABS warning light illuminates, check wiring between instrument panel and ABS ECU. If wiring is okay, replace ABS ECU. If engine warning light does not illuminate, check light bulb. Replace as needed. If bulb is okay, install a known good circuit plate and retest. If light still does not illuminate, replace instrument panel computer and retest.
