This is the Chevy S10/GMC S15-Sonoma discussion, so you probably want to ask in our Mitsubishi Galant discussion.

I drive a S-10 and my wide drives a 02 gallant. Her light came on the other day because of the o2 sensor and I cleared it with the reader I used to detect the cause. I guess the question I would have is how did you know that the o2 sensor is what caused it to come on? Last spring her light came on and it was caused by not having the gas cap on tight. Good Luck.

98 S-10 2WD ABS LIGHT by allenx1966

i have a 98 S-10 2WD. recently i went over a bump and my abs light came on. it stays on most of the time now,but does go off occasionally.i needed to do some brake work anyway, so i thought i would rip into the brakes to find the problem. i replaced both rotors, both calipers,new pads,and replaced and bled my brake fluid. im sure i did all that right,i have some training on brakes.i have no training on ABS though.i inspected my sensors and saw nothing wrong,and wires were fine.i did notice one of my rotors turned by itself,meaning it was not balanced,thats why i replaced my rotors as well. looking at the rust,and the unbalanced rotor,i noticed alot of debris near the sensor.i cleaned that really well.
 got everything back together, brakes work great, but still got the ABS light on. i read in my chiltons cd disc,that to diagnos the abs,i need and "obd II" scanner. i went to my local auto store, they said they could test it,but when they did,it showed no errors. not wanting to replace all my sensors for no reason,i decided to read online for other people with similar issues.only thing i have read so far ,that may help me,is a forum where someone said that not all scanners can diagnos the abs system,and most likely would have to go to a dealer. anyone have any suggestions on what to do next? by the way,i did tear open my rear brakes and inspected everything,and it was fine,and after reading my chilton cd,i discovered the sensor for the rear wheels is on the rear of the transmission,i think i found it as well, and wires seemed ok.
  what now? will the dealer ship charge me a fortune just to hook up the scanner to diagnos what part of the abs is failing? was the local auto stores scanner just junk or cheap?
  any help would be nice. thanks

95 Grand Prix ABS light stays on by grebburts

Hey,
 I am not as well versed in brakes but recently after a severe rain storm my ABS light came on and stayed on. Also at the same time my battery light blinked on and off intermediately. After shutting the car off the lights went out, however after driving about 5 miles the ABS light came back on and stayed on , but not the battery light. Don't want to get ripped at a dealer, and was thinking this could be a sensor problem as well since the battery light also made an appearance. Car has 98,000 miles but really have not had any other problems. Any advise anyone?

i can only offer a good guess. actually my issue is related more to yours than you might know. long before my abs light came on,about 2 years ago, my S-10 would act real funny after an automatic car wash. comming to a stop, the brakes would loose grip and the abs system would kick in just the same as if i were stopping on ice. i figured there must be some issue with the sensor,but i never worried much because the abs light never came on. ..... now, back to my original post, i replaced calipers,shoes,and rotors after my abs light cam on. when finished, the light was still on. webt to locla parts store had the computer scanned for errors,they said there was nothing. then i read that not all scanners will show the problem, but thats just repeating my original post,sorry .... anyway .. last night, after still investigating the best way to troubleshoot the issue,i tried to get the light to go off.
just for chits and giggles, i decided to go to the local power wash, and soak the hell pout of my front wheels. GUESS WHAT HAPPENED ???? THE ABS LIGHT WENT OUT!. im going to drive it a few days and see whats up, but if it comes on again,im either going to find the right computer scanner to tell me what sensor it is,or find a dealer that will test it cheap.
  i think the corrosion, and or debris,and or the water has damaged my sensor. i will get back to you if i find out more, or if you find a cheap way to get the computer diagnosed, let me know.
    thanks .... allenx1966aol.com
