Could be a blown fuse. Check your ABS fuse box.

Does the Light come on and then go off when you first start the car?

Does the light come on and stay on when the car is started in park?

Does the light come on when the vehicle is in motion?

You can read the abs codes the same as reading the ecu codes. Breakstuff, correct me if I am wrong. If there is a malfunction in the abs system, the light will come on. If you purposely disable the abs, the light will come on....... Check for codes.....

Check for codes. The abs can still have trouble codes stored, even if the abs light goes off.....

The "secret" tool..... You should be ashamed that you're only getting it now, at least for home use. I know you don't want to finish valve adjustments toooo fast at work, hehehe. I was doing it with a screw driver, then tightening with a rachet (no space for a wrench in those darn vtec heads), then loosening it and tightening it all over. What a mess! The TOOL will be your friend. Do you have the flywheel locking tool? Can you send me one for my H22a? Buddy, friend, pal...........Sponsored by Honda.....
