i fallowed a how to i found telling me to bridge the Tc and E1 ports and do the same thing as reading and engine code except its off the abs light. This is what happens.
When i turn the key the abs is illuminated, it goes out for second and then comes back on and stays on, its doesn't repeat. So i read something that says if the abs light stays on it could be a faulty abs computer. I went to the scrap yard and found 2 more and tried them both and the same thing happened. I can't imagine that both abs computers i tried were both faulty as well as mine. the chances of that i assume would be one in a million. any help would be appreciated.

This is right out of the book....
"With ignition on, remove short pin from Data Link
Connector (DLC). See Fig. 4. Connect jumper wire between DLC terminals
Tc and E1. See Fig. 4. If a malfunction is detected, 4 seconds will
elapse, then ABS light will begin to flash a 2-digit code. First
series of flashes indicates first digit of code. After a 1.5-second
pause, second series of flashes indicates second digit of code."
You remove the "short pin"?

Where is this "Data Link Connector (DLC)" ????
My ABS light has been on for a long time and it might be the same problem.
