My son and I changed the rear brakes on his car and everything is fine. But now the ABS light on the dash stays on. Is there a problem and is there a correction that can be made?

There will be codes set in the computer for the abs, just like a CEL. Once you have the code(s) we can go further.

If any connectors for the abs system were unplugged or harnesses damaged while changing the brakes, this can set a code and lite the light.
