[Shotimes] ABS

[Kevin & Cheryl Airth]

Joe:
 What codes are you getting with these short ABS lights? Unless the brake
pedal travel switch is moved a certain distance I don't think the ABS
computer will do anything? So the ABS computer does notice the differing
wheel rates but has to have other conditions in addition to this before any
action is taken.
