Car Forum / Honda Cars / June 2005ABS Warning light
Hi All, I am cross posting this here since Honda Passport and Isuzu Rodeo are prety much identical. I have a 2000 Rodeo LS 4X4. Recently my ABS warning light (Orange) coming on and couldn't reset it. Not sure which wheel sonsor is the culprit. Local Isuzu dealer would charge $85 to identify where the problem is. Unfortunately, the warranty period is over and I don't feel like spending $85 + the repair cost. If I can get some help from you guys to identify the problem, I may be able to get OEM parts or from the junkyards. Local AutoZone has OBD readers but not for ABS Warnings. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Mathew > Hi All, > > I am cross posting this here since Honda Passport and Isuzu Rodeo are > prety much identical. I have a 2000 Rodeo LS 4X4.

If it can sit on the driveway and idle for five minutes and not generate a light, it's probably a wheel sensor. Once you start moving, the system looks for a clean signal from all four sensors (as well as the speed sensor). Inspect the tone rings on the front for obvious rust / dirty grease accumulation. Knowing your mileage is a help too. Have the brakes been bled according to the schedule? 'Curly' Thanks for the info. My vehicle has 65K on it. The ABS warning light is stale all the time. The moment you start the vehicle it comes on and I don't have to drive. For the last two weeks it was on and off ocationaly. Now, it will not go away. I can rule out the rear since the rear brakes were changed 2 month ago and I did not get any warning at that time. My suspecion is the front. I bought this vehicle as used and not know all the history. The braking part is working find just the warning light is concerning me. I can ask my mechanic to bleed and see whether it solve the problem. I have the Haynes manual but there is nothing about ABS sensor or speed sensor. I don't even know how it would looks like. Is there any web link I can check for additional info? Appreciate your help. Mathew > Thanks for the info. My vehicle has 65K on it.

They haven't been exercised at that point, so can't show fault. Pump or ECU would be my suspicion. >> Thanks for the info. My vehicle has 65K on it.
