Hey whats up guys i have an abs light on in my 4th gen and i herd that you can check the code like you would a cel but i cant find anything about it can anyone help me out with this? Thanks in advanced.

 

bump, got the same problem... sometimes my lights off, but most of the time it clicks on right when i start rollin.

 

short the service connector and it will flash you the code

 

ok thats what someone told me but how do i check from that what it is?
is there a right up that has the codes in it?

 

try topping off all the resevoirs that take dot 4 fluid.. Mine was coming on consistantly but my brakes were working just fine. So I topped off my fluids and no more light.

 

Mines on constantly and I miss my ABS. I've topped all liquids.

My mechanic said that the problem was most likely an abs wheel speed sensor. The part that reads the pulsor ring that is on the cv joint, the metal ring thingy with the notches on it. So if you drive for like 3 seconds then the abs light comes on, its the wheel speed sensor. And you can find out which sensor it is by seeing the fault code. To do this you put a paperclip in both ends of the blue plug thats located behind the center console behind the radio, it should just be sitting there loose, you can pull it out and jumper the plug. Then you take your key and turn it till all the lights come on, then they will turn off. If you have a fault code either the abs light will start flashing or the check engine light will flash. Since this is a abs problem the abs light will flash. The abs codes are different than the engine codes, there are no long flashes, and all the codes are two digit, so you will get two numbers that represent a two digit number from short flashes. If your manual doesnt have the abs fault codes you can look them up on google, "prelude abs fault codes". I got 48 which is the drivers side rear sensor. After buying a set of used abs sensors, cause the new ones are 96 bucks a piece, and installing it. I saw that the real problem was that the sensor was too far from the pulsor ring. It is supposed to be less than .039mm away. So in order to save some money, you could do what I had to do anyways. File down the mating surface for the sensor so that it sits closer to the ring. Since its easier to file the sensor side instead of the wheel side where the sensor bolts up to. This probably will fix your problem without having to buy a new or used sensor. So I did that and it fixed the abs problem. No More annoying blaring yellow light in my face no more. Yey!! And if your wondering where the abs ecu is, its behind the panel under the right rear window. Hopes this helps someone. Later...</TD></TR></TABLE>

Yeah mine comes on at around 90kmh.
Goes away when car is turned off

 

Check your sensors, I had a loose sensor that caused my light to come on.

i dont understand how to read it if any one can help me with that.

 

Youll find its common that the 4x solenoid valves can easily get an air-lock if you try bleeding them like a regular abs system!

This happened to me on my JDM BB1.
Started driving and the ABS and TCS lights tripped out!

Checked the manual, Honda bleed them with a special top-up reservoir and under-pressure using a harness to trip the ABS pump/booster!

If you take it to honda, pay what $20? for a brake bleeding.

The results will amaze you! When you brake the car just squats'N'Stops, no locking with decent tyres on

 

i got the same thing...what gen is your ludes guys?

 

4th. The codes the ABS kicks out I would assume would be the same for both...

 

Does the ABS light have to be ON to check the code?
