...KJ ABS...
« on: April 27, 2009, 10:50:55 PM »

Hi
ABS light came on for about 30 miles then went off, stuck in Walsall all week, is there somewhere local I can take it? Don`t want to risk going home in case it happens again....handbook says brakes will work, only without ABS....
Thanks!!

Get the system scanned for faults. It's usually a sensor. There is an issue with the rear sensor (in the rear diff) on KJs, and a technical bulletin to cover the problem, but basically it gets contaminated with metal debris from the diff oil.
