    Oh absolutely...

    My invisible mechanic in the sky routinely fixes stuff on my truck, I'm even trying (praying) to work out a deal where he installs my gears & locker & I'll do something nice for an older person in need...

    Oh I get it now, that explains it!! ......that must be the same invisible mechanic that goobered my cladding....guess they don't always do good deeds, eh?

    RAM- Your explanation /logic makes sense to me
    I'm just sittin' 'n a waiting' 'till my ABS light finally comes on and I can join the majority here!

    Ohhh, I've heard of them..... so now I can still hope the invisible mechanic comes and fixes my goobered cladding! Actually between the pressure sprayer and Luna-X, I may just not need this invisible mechanic you speak of....er, um, .... maybe Luna is the invisible mechanic??

    My ABS light is on. I have 2 backups from parted out VX's, now I just have to replace it. My plan is to take my broken out and sent it off to have it rebuilt ($100) and just keep cycling them in if they keep breaking.

    Something in my DNA code wont allow me to be ok with something just being broken.....I have to fix it. But I am not in a HUGE hurry....it has been on for almost a year.

    I'm the same way except I'm looking forward to getting rid of my abs so it wouldn't bother me.

    I'll take the advise to pull the battery cable and see what happens. But has anyone here had success resolving an ABS light by that method? If the module is acting up I would think that resetting the computer would only be a temporary fix.

    i dont use tape on the plastic ..i use one of those cling on window stickers they give you at a oil change place.. then cut it down to cover the light ..it still glows alittle bit through the sticker and it doesnt mess up the plastic.
