The abs light on my 2001 impreza occasionally comes on and the cruise control doesn't work also. Are the two related?
SOURCE: cruise control won't engage
most likely the clock spring is not the problem because when u push the button the dash light cruise comes on.wich means that you do not have an open circuit.with a light tester check to see if you are getting power to the cruise control servo.if you are then replace it.if no power you will need a new cruise control stick on the steering column.
abs computer sounds no good,check for short in wire to oil sender wire might be grounding out to turn light on

I HAVE SEEN A BAD BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH CAUSE THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS TO COME ON.BUT TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP.BECAUSE YOU COULD BE HAVING BRAKE FAILURE THE.ABS BRAKES MAY NOT BE WORKING.LET THE GARAGE OR DEALERSHIP SCAN IT. AND FIX.

Hello
The ABS warning light only comes on and stays on when a fault exists in the ABS system, when the fault is repaired the light will be turned off by the ABS control module. There are many components in the ABS Brake system that can turn the light on when they malfunction, so when this light is on you will need the dealer to hook up a special tool called a scanner, it will read the fault code that is turning the light on in the dash display, then based on that code(s) the technican performs diagnostics and repairs or replaces the failed part. Guessing is not an option here as all the parts of the system are very expensive, so proper diagnostics are the only way to minimize the expense of repair.

i currently own 2 of these trucks, in total ive had 6 of them .. i know i must like abuse right..lol. on your cruise not working. try this the big flat panel on your dash under the steering wheel. remove it.now this is assuming you have a tilt unit. money bets you do. but anyways the main feed wire i think its called D3 goes out to the fuse box as well as many other wires and a very fine i think again green wire. the problem is that over time using the tilt under normal circumstances those wires start to break. the D3 goes right to the key switch. if that breaks while out on the road. you have 4200 pound paper weight. good place to start. as for your brake light and abs most likley its the abs card or trigger that is located on the center of the rear axle housing. alot of times just replacing the card. if it comes back in a week then its probobly the trigger. not that its broke. this thing goes thru the housing and reads the teeth on the ring gear. and any little wear or a slight chip and they dont read right.. i quit fixing this problem on mine.truth is this thing is the second most delicate thing on the truck... the junk transmissions are the first.. sorry had to say it
