I wouldn't worry about it. The ABS sensors probably just detected a large difference in wheels speed and freaked out. If your ABS light is off now, it won't matter. No, it didn't help you get up the hill.

I have the opposite reaction. My ABS light does not come on , but my ABS is kicking in( I know because of the pulsation of the brake pedal when I brake hard on wet surfaces). Yes , the ABS is working but no light. I will like to note that ABS light is on , when ignition is turned on .
If anyone have any input , kindly respond.



P.S , forgive me for jacking the post.
