My 93 Bronco just rolled 120,000 miles and the dash light for the
Brake came on. If I apply the brakes hard the light goes out for
a minute but then returns on again. The brakes seem to work
OK. The Bronco does have anti-lock brakes.
Any help on resetting the thing? I did try disconnecting the battery
and hooked it back up but still the warning light stays on.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

What turns on the light? Maybe you should find out what needs attention
on your ride. >> Stay informed about: Brake warning indicator HELP please |

Find out why the light is coming on before you kill yourself as a result of
brake failure....

I don't know about the 93, but my 2000 had an ABS light that turned out to
be the rear sensor. I know it takes a special code reader for brake
problems, but you might find a shop that will read it for you. Those
sensors have very fine wire, and sometimes, like a light bulb, it goes out.
Get a manual and it should tell you what might be causing the light. You
can narrow it down from there.
