ABS light came on 2002 SE Auto..

Today when I was going to work, the ABS light just came on. I pulled over and turned my car off and then when I turned it back on, the light was off. I drove for a bit on the freeway a little slow and tested out my brakes and they feel fine. Anybody know what it can be?

No doubt about it. I will be taking it to the dealership, but I'm hoping that its nothing serious. It just weird how it came on. I'm a little scared driving back home. I'm going to try and get out of work early so I can take it. Would 1-800-Nissan1 have an answer for me on that? What do you guys think?

Did you experience any problems F23A4? Did you take it to the dealership.

800-Nissan-1 won't take action unless you've gone to the dealer and had a bad experience. I remember reading on here that there maybe a problem with one of the rear wheel sensors.

So I guess I should take my car to the dealership and have it revised. I'll make an appointment for the weekend.

The ABS light on my 2K SE came on a couple of weeks ago. I turned off the car and when I restarted it, the ABS light was off. I took my Max in to the dealer and they ran diagnostics. No DTCs were stored in the ECU. The ABS light hasn't come on since then.

Hey guy's I get it all the time after I wash my car by hand and throw some armor all on the tires. Then after I shut it off and restart it the light goes away.
