Hi guys

Just a quick question, can a faulty speedometer bring up the ABS light?

Thanks in advance

Not sure, but the speedo takes its reading from one of the ABS sensors, so the two are connected.

so on that logic, a faulty speedo will not bring up the ABS light .... but a faulty ABS sensor may cause a faulty speedometer and a ABS light  s:) :) s:)
