My ABS light stays on the majority of the time (mitsubishi shogun 2.8 1996)?

My ABS light stays on the majority of the time (mitsubishi shogun 2.8 1996) ive changed the brake caliper that needed changing as all of the others were fine and topped up the brake fluid, the ABS comes on every now and again and ive seen one mechanic who said he had no idea what it was.

It had its MOT last wednesday and one of the failure points was the ABS light being on al the time.

I only ever drive in 2WD on roads and was just after a bt of info on how to cure this problem please

many thanks,

Find a mechanic that knows how to fix the problem, and post again if you have any odd noises or more pecific times when the light goes on, also ask the mechanic about stupid problems like a touchy lever, my abs light goes on when i dont have weight on the e-brake lever to keep it from moving.My ABS light stays on the majority of the time (mitsubishi shogun 2.8 1996)?warning light sensor could of gone bad, its most likely a computer problem and not a actual problem as long as the brakes are not locking upMy ABS light stays on the majority of the time (mitsubishi shogun 2.8 1996)?it could be a loose connection between the abs wire and the connector on the caliperMy ABS light stays on the majority of the time (mitsubishi shogun 2.8 1996)?Quite possible that you could have a bad wheel sensor. Every wheel has a sensor (4 wheel ABS) to sense the differential wheel speed. If this sensor goes bad or a wire shorts somehow, they will malfunction and turn on your light. The ABS light only indicates that your ABS is not functioning - brakes will work as normal so there is no reason to alarm.
