hello everyone, My abs light went on when I was driving. the next day the light was on a the start And disappeared 5 minutes after turning on the car. it does this regularly. I tested the abs on snow today and it still works .... any idea of my problem?

Don't worry about it. Abs is unnecessary.

Sensor fault on one wheel. Cheap as to fix.

Fucking Mazda, man. They have ridiculously stupid prices for some of the shit for the Miata.
Not OP, though.

How do you find out which sensor is faulty?
>>14709819
OBD scanner and drive the car, it will show which wheel is turning at what speed.

Well shit
Is there a way to test each individual sensor with a multimeter?
>>14709832
Nope. Maybe if your car can show diagnostics in something like the climate control panel, but even then I doubt it will show the ABS status.
>>14709832
Sure you can, just lift the car and ask a friend to rotate the wheel while you get the voltmeter on the sensor
You'll find it easily, I've done it last month

..fuck

Well you can try to do it with your foots, but it'll be easier if u catch a stranger on the sidewalk and give him a carrot cake

Go to autozone, they let you borrow a obd scanner for free

The nearest Autozone is about 4000 miles away

Depends on the car. My 05 Focus has replaceable sensors, but on my 05 Monte Carlo they're enclosed in the wheel hub assembly and you'd have to replace the whole thing.

I don't think their scanners do ABS, just engine codes.
