ABS Light?

[Super Eta]

Well this has been on going with my new car. The ABS light comes on and the whole ABS system shuts down and whenever i hit the brakes the wheels lock up. It doesnt bother me that much but becomes a pain.

What is causing this to happen. No its not the ABS computer as i already replaced that and basically all i can think of is the ABS box under the hood.
Is this a normal thing that tends to go out.

It does not do it constantly but out of the blue it will shut off and then i have to turn off the car and then let the car sit for about 5-8 minutes then start it up and then its fine sometimes. The ABS that is.

Also how should i go about replacing the ABS under the hood? I have take one of them suckers out before but i was not trying to be carful heh

TIA

CHeck all the sensor harnesses, replace the ABS Relay (I think its under the dash)

or enjoy the fact that you no longer have crappy 1st gen ABS

Oh yea i forgot about those sensors. thanks for the heads up ill get on that.

When you say ABS relay you are talking about the small silver box that is the first thing exposed when you drop the knee bolster correct?
