I have 2005 Chrysler Crossfire with 34,000 miles on it. The ABS light is alway on. I replace a leaky booster but that didn't help. I've tried the procedure suggested in the manual of turning the steering wheel one way and then the other etc. but that didn't help. Sometimes on a warm day it will go off for awhile. Chrysler mechanics don't want to work on it because it's a Mercedes, and Mercedes mechanics don't want to work on it because it's a Chrysler... I rather fix it myself anyway. What do you think of these cars? How can I get that braking system light to go out? Stick a piece of electrical tape over it? The brakes seem to work fine.
Thanks,
John
It could be the ABS sensor(s). Although you need a higher level scan tools to tell you what exactly is wrong.
I think they look better in a scrap yard than on the road. As you said it’s Chrysler as we all know Chrysler=crap. @yaser is correct though, I’d get my hands on or find someone with a high end scanner that will really get in the details and track down what’s really going on.
I really love the design of these cars, but as far as practicality and reliability - NOT!
If you can locate the connectors for the ABS sensors you can test them with a multimeter, either looking for pulses while spinning the hub or by checking continuity and resistance. (For the latter you would need to check the specified resistance for your vehicle. Typically 1K to 2K ohms.) Usually the problem is in the cable since it flexes with wheel movement.
