it could be the ABS control unit or the pump. I have same light on, its pretty common to see that on older integs. Both my Integs and few friends of mine had one, had the same light on. Do you hear buzzing noise when you start the car?

So I have to take my car to the dealer to have the ABS light cleared? I dropped my car a few days ago and I went to take it for a test drive and I noticed the light was on. It wasnt before I dropped the car!! What you guys think?

same deal it's flashin the abs light and 90% sure it's a bad fuse, or if you hit a big pothole or something it might set it off. There's ways to reset it yourself but it's really weird i looked into it. In your case i'ld check out the buzzing it may be a fuse or it could also be the abs pump

OP, pull the codes for the ABS system. You use a paperclip to jump the service connector in the passenger footwell, turn the ignition to the run position, and read the codes (flashes) from the ABS light.

All of the work that you did would not affect the ABS system.

after all these posts, how come no one has said the most common abs problem?...WHEEL SPEED SENSOR!!!! One could be dirty or need replacing which is a lot cheaper then an ABS pump.

Check your CEL's, a more common thing is that abs sensors could be dirty or bad....but check your CEL first check the codes, they don't lie.
