Why does my abs light come on after driving?
Inspect the ABS unit for leaks of brake fluid, even very small wet spots, some the problems listed seem like pressure problems, the ABS pump is trying to keep the ABS unit pressurized but its leaking.
How does an ABS sensor work on a car?
An abs sensor is securely mounted to the car a “jostle” will not move it . if it were to move it would have to be completely broken from its mount and it wouldn’t “reset” itself into place
Why does my Lincoln Grand Marquee have an ABS light?
It could be wheel bearing is getting bad if not the wheel sensor. A bad wheel bearing can cause the sensor on that wheel to have inconsistent readings as compared to other wheels so that the ABS system detect fault triggering the ABS light to turn on.

Why is my anti lock brake light on?
The anti-lock brake system is a complex configuration of computers and sensors. When all of the components are working in perfect harmony, it ensures a quick, reactive system that can improve braking control under all surface conditions. Faults in this system are often first indicated by illuminated lights in the gauge cluster.
