you can pull the code for the abs light to determine what the problem is....i have the manual at home i will look at it later. My sensor is bad too and it was throwing a light, but im too cheap to fix it so i just pulled the bulb from the cluster. No more abs light

Just an idea, but might want to check your brake fluid, This happen to me before, and I just refilled it and then it went away.

I assume you are talking about a Gen3 Integra LS. (since you didn't bother to post that)
If you are do you know where the ABS computer is? I know on my GS-R it is right behind the panel that the rear speaker is on the passenger side. You have to remove lots of things to get that panel off because it is one piece all the way to the back. Anyways I believe there is a diagnostic LED on it that tells you what is wrong. I don't have a Helm's manual because those bastards charged my card and said oops we don't have any in stock. And when I called them and they said the refunded the card. Total BS.

mine was coming on once in a while and i used to freak then i found that everytime it came on my Emergency Brake was up just one notch and if i put it down and restarted the car it would turn off. this is just what happened to me, if your's is on all the time its obviously something else.

well some things i have checked, my brake fluid is okay, i did check to make sure my e-brake is not setting it off(previous hint from someone), It turns on as soon as i start moving at about 5-10mph.
I take it from these post i have to get to the abs computer and not the one in mu kick panel to get a code....
I really appreciate you guys helping me out with this, i hhope i can get this fixed soon.

OH yeah, about the light, i would unplug it but i like the idea of having my abs working, it makes driving more fun

You can pull the codes by wiring the little clip in the green shroud under your passenger side dash, it'll be the clip w/ the brown and black wires, run a regular wire from one slot to the other on this clip, then turn the key to the "on" position, your ABS light should flash a couple times, you can get a Haynes and look up this flash sequence, or report back here.

do your brakes drag? if not, it's probably just the right-front wheel sensor. have you ever spun out while cornering
