My ABS light came on in my 1993 Jeep Cherokee Laredo and want to know why?I think I tripped a wire using pliers to crank it because it sparked,but not quite sure.Also I have realized that when my ABS light is on my blinkers don‘t work and neither does my window.Can anyone diagnos the problem?Is it all in the steering column?If so,what parts do I need to order?and of not,Hoe much is it to have a mechanic check the ABS and fix it?
Have the tires balanced and/or checked for out of round condition.
How old/how many miles to the tires have on them? I have experienced tires that are starting to separate internally causing me vibrations at certain speeds before. There are many other factors as well . .
It is a built in safety device to stop you from getting a speeding ticket by alerting you to the fact you are most likely going in excess of the legal posted speed limit.
Antilock braking system. You will need diagnostic testing to figure out the cause, normally its a wheel speed sensor.
A shop that specializes in tires, brakes, alignments, etc can diagnose it for you but they will most likely charge you. A lot of your major chain parts places will scan the computer for free. But you must ask them if their scanner is capable of reading ABS codes. Not all scanners will read ABS codes.
