Question

The abs warning light has come on in my car, what does this mean?

Answer 1

Normally that you have a faulty sensor.  Your brakes will still function but the ABS is probably disabled.

Is it a Renault?

Answer 2

more info required . make and model please .

Answer 3

get the car checked out..

Answer 4

first check the fluid level in your brake reservoir and if it's ok you have a bad wheel sensor or a wire has broke off of one, you will have normal brakes you just won't have the anti-lock system working until you get the wheel sensor fixed.

Answer 5

bad sensor...after 3 replacements at 125 dollars each, i pulled fuse on mine...No ABS no problem

Answer 6

look at the rings were the sensors pick up there signal they split and send a false signal to the abs ecu and thats what brings the light onTo do this jack the car up put full look on and turn the wheel slowley watching the rings as they turn

Answer 7

I had this happen to me a while ago.

Mine appeared when i got a flat tire but i think that was more coincidence and when it went in for an MOT the guy said that the sensor was faulty. It cost me around £90 to repair it.

Answer 8

Probably a dodgy sensor but get it checked out.

Answer 9

That your 'Anti Lock Braking' system is at fault or that brake fluid level is low. Get a garage to check it out before you have an accident.

Answer 10

Dealer call and have them check it out>

Answer 11

Probably the seat belt pre-tentioner wires under the front seats need there connectors cleaned.

Ja.
