ABS after track session...

nicksm3 · 07-16-2019, 09:56 PM

At Watkins Glen the last 2 days.....

Anyone's ABS light came on the dash after a hard session?
Car ran fine first lap this am (2nd day)...car sat for 2.5 hours....I started it and ABS light popped up. Obviously a scam tool will tell me the issue.
I'm running PFC BBK, BFG R1 slicks.

Sounds like your abs unit is on the way out. But codes will tell you.

Thanks man, yes I was thinking that...I'll have it checked with scanner in a few days. Just a shame...had 2 more sessions left and this happens.

Check the codes, and battery/charging system. Often the first system to tell you about a low voltage problem is the ABS.

It could just be a wheel speed sensor. I had that happen to me. Somehow the sensor got damaged. Replaced and it's fine now!

Agreed. Gunk happens and can mess the sensor up.
