No the ABS light never came on. I think that was because, as far as the ABS computer was concerned, the system was working fine - one or more sensors were detecting wheel lockup and the computer told the ABS pump to control it via pulsed pressures to the offending wheel. It didn't matter the sensor was bad.

I'd check RPR and FCP Groten for the sensors. Call them - they can get a lot of things not listed on their web site.

Before you replace the sensors, clean them as I described earlier - this is a common fix. Only after the cleaning fails to fix the problem, then test the sensors. The test involves spinning the wheel and measuring the signal produced by the magnetic pickup of the sensor. Can't remember the particulars.
