Default Checking ABS Codes

My abs light came on, is there a way to use a jumper or paperclip to check the abs codes like the CEL codes, i tried searching but the search is not working

On my '95 Integra, it's exactly the same. If there's ABS errors, the ABS light will blink it's code instead of the CEL blinking.

What year? My ABS only flashes short. First & second digit of the code are determined by short or long spaces between the blinks. Check out the sticky thread at the top of the Integra forum, but I don't know what might be different for Accords...

If your engine ECU has no errors, the check-engine light will remain on the whole time while the jumper is connected. But it's the ABS light that should be blinking, if the ABS has any stored errors.

That's the way is is on my '95 Integra. Things are different year-to-year, probably different from Accord vs. Integra? I don't even know what year Accord you have...
