my wife's idiot lights for abs, brakes, and the check engine were on when she picked me up to return home from a year in Iraq I asked her how long they were on an she said they just came on. when I hooked up my oba tool the car it gave me a trouble code for the vss but the manual was not clear on how to check the vss onthe car or where it was?
