Default ABS light on - '97 Voyager

The ABS light has decided to stay on on the wife's '97 Voyager. Is there a test procedure to follow to check to see where the problem is? I was under the mistaken impression that an OBD tester would pull the code, but it didn't work.

I appreciate any help you guys can offer! [sm=smiley20.gif]

Unfortunately you'll need to get your hands on a scanner like the one used at the dealer.They're several models of scanners
available such as the Snap-On or OTC models and the dealer scanner DRB3. But take note they all need ABS capapility.
I can tell you most of the time the ABS light comes on is due to a defective wheel speed sensor. If you have an ohm meter
handy you can check the resistance at the wheel speed sensor itself by spinning the wheel and reading the resistance.

Thanks for the reply. I was afraid that was the case.

Do you know what the resistance is supposed to be at the sensors?
