Anti lock break light stays on - Regal Buick Cars & Trucks

The security light is for anti-theft system ,when the light is on or flashing ,it think's the vehicle is being stolen . It will disable the fuel system ( fuel injectors ) so it won't start ! Does your key have a pellet on the side of the key ? Trying to find out which anti-theft system yours has . If it does have a little black pellet on the side of the part that goes into the ignition lock cylinder , That pellet is a resistor an when you fit into the the lock cylinder there are two contacts inside the lock that read the resistance . There is a module that then can say if it's the right resistance or not , allowing or not to let the fuel injectors fire. The problem with this anti-theft system the contacts and or the wires break ! This is the VAT'S - vehicle anti -theft system or they have pass lock - pass key 1 , 2 , 3 . On the vats system a by-pass can be done . On you tube there are videos showing how to do it .

Your abs and traction control lights should only come on when you start to slide while breaking(ABS), and when your wheels spin in place when excelerating(TC). If those 2 things don't happen, which with some people they never do, you should never see the lights come on. Only when those mechanisms are in use do the lights come on. And they will always flicker as that is what abs and tc are, intermitant surges to break up the constant. ABS does this for obvious reasons...anti lock break, so when you slide, the abs "taps" the breaks in short bursts so they don't lock up. TC "taps" the exclelrator when it slips. Those "taps" are what trigger the lights on your dash, which is why they flicker and don't stay on.

take your vehicle to the nearest auto zone, they have a diagnostic tester, they should be able to take the light out for free.

The abs system is the anti-lock break system you shoud have your breaks checked as soon as possible

check it
hope it may helps

Have the sensor checked first. If that's not the case, the system may be defective. Only be having it checked by a trusted mechanic will give you peace of mind. Get an estimate first! Good Luck

This could be caused by a fuse being blown or this could mean that your brakes need to be changed.

did you accidently unplug a rear speed sensor

unhook the battery for about ten minutes... that should reset the light... if it comes back on stop in at autozone and have them scan the codes (it's free)

please take a moment to rate this solution... thanks

There's a switch on your emergency brake that the indicator (on your dashlight) operates from. Sometimes it slips in its bracket and gets out of adjustment causing your dash light to stay on. Its located on the upper part of your emergency brake pedal. Hope this works for you. Goodluck.
