ABS light always on, on my Civic 2005
Hi on my civic ferio 2005 (29286 mileage) from yesterday the ABS light and the hand-break light is constantly on and today I have changed the break pad in front wheels and serviced the rear wheel breaks and STILL the both ABS (orange) and HANDBREAK (red) lights are on. Any idea what I should do? I'm from Bangladesh. Thanks.

Reset the ECU and see if the lights come back on.
To reset the ECU, remove fuse #6 from the under-hood fuse box or disconnect the battery. Wait a minute before reinstalling the fuse or reconnecting the battery. After resetting the ECU, you need to do the Idle Learn Procedure. With everything electrical turned off (wipers, heat/ac, radio, lights, etc etc.) start the engine and hold it at 3,000 RPM until the radiator fan comes on. Release the accelerator and let the car idle for at least five minutes.
If the ABS light comes back on, you can see why it's on by following this DIY from the FAQ's...
About the brake light being on.. is the parking brake handle all the way down? Have you checked the button/switch at the base of the parking brake handle to make sure it's being pressed in when the handle is fully-released?
How much brake fluid is in the reservoir? If it's low, fill it to the MAX line.
