"I am having this same problem. My mechanic put it on the computer and said it was a faulty sensor from the right rear wheel. However, after he fixed it, it is still happening.    Anyone else know what is wrong with this?"

ABS LIGHTS

Has anyone had their ABS lights come on & stay on after starting off from a stop & turning right? The lights go off after you park & shut the key off for a few seconds & restart the engine! I've duplicated it only once @ the same spot I noticed it the first time! Drive slowly over a set of railroad tracks,stop then turn right & accelerate!! A very strange phenomenon!! Thanks
