ABS Light On
Hey guys, I'm a newbie here. I just picked up at 96 acura 3.2 TL with only 134,000 KMs. It's in Mint condition however the Abs light seems to come on every so often. I've taken it to the dealer to have it checked but no luck, no codes, and sometimes, it doesn't light up when they check it. I've read other posts about it needing a tune up or a fuel injection. I was wondering if anyone has gotten any possible solutions to this before I start dumping more money into this problem? Any help is much appreciated.

I have 91 Acura Legend with 192000 miles. The ABC light is on all the time for the past 50000 miles. Dealer could not fix it. No functional problems. Drjay99 |

Re: ABS Light On
You may have to get code read out when the light is on.
If it comes on again do not turn off ign. Head it for the dealer or some place that has a ABS capable scanner and get it checked. Some abs systems wwill clear thereself when the ign is turned off and will not set the light or a code untill the problem happens again. Good luck and if you can get a code no. post it back. MT

Thanks a ton for replying. Autozone does free OBDII code scanning. Is an OBDII all we need or do we need a ABS capable OBDII scanner? Took it to an Acura specialist but the light refused to come up that day. the very next day it popped up again. |

Re: ABS Light On
OBD11 scan will not pick up ABS codes.
You will need a ABS capable scanner. Also you may have to scan when the light is on. Not many auto zone store can scan for ABS codes. MT

BE CAREFULL OUT THERE Grandblah About what you tell people to jump. If you jump the wrong thing you can wipe out a 1K dollars worth of computers. You 97 is a long way from a 96 3.2 TL acura A 96 takes different checking equipment. The link you posted is for checking engine codes and states that 96 up is OBD11 and requires a scanner to test. The 96 acura 3.2 TL requires a 7HAJ-SGOO10B HONDA abs TESTER TO check the ABS system. Jumping into someone elses post with a different vechicle and may be a different problem can get you to many confusing answers. If you want help on your 97 start a new post and give us all info including make and model and year and engine and trans. MT
