My ABS light is acting wierd. First started out a couple months ago it as coming on after driving about 15-30 minutes - at varying times - but stayed on. Stayed on while driving and remained on until shutting engine off and turning Key OFF. Then awhile later, it comes on immediately when starting engine and stays on but goes out anytime the brake pedal is pressed - light is coming back on when releasing brake pedal. And, when engine is off and key off, ABS lights up when brake pedal is pressed - light goes off when brake pedal is released. Next chance I get I will look at wheel sensors to see if there is debris or crud cluttering them. Any other ideas will be appreciated. I assume these sensors are only on the rear wheels.

Yea, ABS problems are not always easy. And the ABS module/pump are Cobra specific. 94-98 I think. No swapping with a GT or V6. Which also means unobtainable. But the wheel sensors are still available. And here is a link to get you started down the dark ABS hole...

There is a way to test the pump solonoids...there is an internet site where someone bench tests the pump...found it
