Hi there,
This has happened 3 times so far over the past 2 months.
The ABS light turns on after about 15 - 30 mins of driving. When I turn off my engine and restart, the light goes off only to come back on maybe a few weeks later.

My thougts:
ABS is actually faulty
or
ABS solder joints

I don't think the ABS is faulty as the car still stops fine and sharp (no excessive brake pressure is needed).

What does everyone else think.

Also if it is the ABS solder joints wouldn't it just be easier to get a new or used ABS unit off eBay?

Thanks
