Hello, I'm Danny.

That means you have an ABS trouble code stored in your vehicles computer. First thing I suggest is to have the code(s) checked. If you don't have access to a code reader/scanner your local auto parts stores have a tool loaner program and can rent you one. You will need an OBD1 reader. Here is a tutorial showing what is involved:

Once you have the codes read please get back to us with the code numbers and we will be happy to properly diagnose. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
