Default ABS Light

Alright, so my ABS light has been coming on for awhile now...and my brakes just lock up when i stop quick. The brake fluid is full in all resevoirs.... and when i hooked up the test connector, I got two quick blinks...a pause..and another quick blink. Does anybody know what this would be?? Any info. would be awesome.Thanks.

2 blinks, then 1 blink is "parking brake switch-related problem". Causes are these--

-Parking brake applied for more tha 30 sec while driving
-Brake fluid level in master cylinder too low
-Brake system light is blown
-Wiring is messed up between ABS module, brake system lights, parking brake switch, or brake fluid level switch.

Well, common sense would tell me to make sure the e-brake is all the way down and that the switch is working (no e-brake light), then check brake fluid, and then if it's not fixed, check the wiring connection between the aforementioned components.

My Parking Brake light on the dash doesn't work...because i took it out to put it in the check engine slot becuz it was burnt out...and ever since I did that, the ABS light has been comin on....so could that be the prob.?

I think that this is a common problem among 4th gen ludes. I have heard several people mention that their ABS light comes on at about 10 mph or 10 seconds of travel. My ABS light just stays on all the time, for some unknown reason.

Just a little reassurace that you arnt the first this has happened to. Ill be interested to hear all new information about this b/c i want to fix mine too .
