On my 2007 Grand Caravan, after replacing the rr hub assembly and ABS wheel speed sensor, upon start, the amber ABS light remained on (lit). After seeing the above post by jumpdrive2, I simply drove the van out of the shop across the parking area to about 15 mph and the light extinguished. No need to disconnect battery.

2002 Dodge Caravan ABS & Brake Lights stays on Trac off
My Dodge Caravan 2002 does not have ABS module, no wheel speed sensors and the ABS, Brake lights, Trac off lights stays on. The vehicle could not be certified due to the lights.
Please suggest if the computer can be reprogrammed for non ABS.

The van was never equipped with ABS.
It is possible that previous owner replaced fuse junction box and wiring harness.
I am having this van since Dec 2007 and the lights came on in 2013 when I did battery boost for my neighbors car.
The mechanic at local garage suggested the simple solution of taking the light bulbs out from the instrument cluster. Is it legal to do so
Pls. advice
Thanks

Abs light
Here is a method that works on our 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan. Start vehicle, put foot on brake and do not remove. Back the van up while turning the steering wheel all the way to the right. Keeping your foot on the brake put the vehicle in drive and pull forward while straightening the wheel. Obviously you will have to ease up on the brake a bit to move forward, just dont take your foot off, the brake lights must be on. Once you are driving straight take your foot off the brake, turn and brake again. Parking lot works well for this, back out of your parking spot, turn the wheel to go straight, go forward. Sounds dumb but it works on ours which has a phantom ABS light with no codes set.
