Greetings!! I need your advice guys.... I started to have a problem with my 850 GLT 1995 Wagon ... Sometimes after driving at least 1 hour and then park for less than 30 minutes and then turn the ignition on again I get the ABS light on... I have to wait a few seconds and try again (2 or 3 times to make to work)
Any clue? Beside that I don't have any problem with the ABS light ... (not abs light when I am driving)

Thank you in advance for your input

    I don't fully understand your problem. The ABS light (and TRACS light if you have it) will come on for 1-2 seconds as a bulb check when you turn the ignition to on, and may stay on another second after cranking. You say that the ABS light does not come on when driving. What do you mean by "try again 2 or 3 times to make work"?

    Your wheel sendors coudl be the culprit or the ABS module. There are a ton of posts on this topic... scroll through the posts. ABS modules die all the time on these babies. One of the numerous problems I had with my 850.
