My ABS dummy light comes on and off at times. Doesn't seem to be any correlation to when I apply the brakes. Anyone else have this happen. I do have the Cobra brake upgrade, however this was occurring before that upgrade.

You have to get it scanned to find out what code is in the module. Most likely an ABS wheek sensor.

I beleive there is a way to ground the ABS test port and get the ABS light to blink the codes to you. I am unsure how though or what the codes would mean.

Most likely it's a ABS wheel sensor on it's way out. You might want to give them a quick glance and see if anything looks corroded or cracked.

I forget to mention that the sensors looked fine, not sure if that actually are, but they've been physically checked.

Did youunplug them and check the resistance with a meter?

You should get some resistance with a meter. If the sensor is open it is faulty. Wiggle the wiring around to see if it's an intermittent open
