Just purchased an 08 Ultra (105th), I'm having issues with the ABS system (only 675 miles). Usually, when I start the bike the ABS light flashes, at 3 mphthe light goes off.According to theowners manual, the system is working correctly. Got it out yesterday and rode around the block, the ABS light did not flash, it stayed on the entire time. For some reason, the light has a mine of it's own, sometimes it flashes, sometimes it dosen't, sometimes it comes on and flashes when I'm riding, sometimes it stays on the entire time. Think it's time for a trip to the local dealership.Anyone else have these problems???

 

nope,, better have them take a look,, prob'y no biggie

 

No problem with the ABS on my Ultra. But, my '97 S-10 has that problem with the ABS light staying on most of the time.

 

Take out the bulb...

 

Disconnect the battery and reboot the computer. Or let the dealer do it under warrenty.

 

If the light stays on after above 3 mph....the ABS system is not working. You have regular brakes but no ABS if you get into a problem. Run it over to the dealer and let him check the codes for the ABS fault light staying on.
You can do it yourself through the speedometer/odometer readout for trouble codes but you need an electrical Diagnostics manual to work you through the steps of retrieval and clearance of the codes.

 

It's easier to put a piece of tape over it.

 

But your expertise is out of the bag... [sm=alcoholic.gif][sm=icon_quiet.gif]

 

get it over to the dealer. that should not be happening. Probably something simple. dont worry Bob

 

The ABS on my '08 FLHTC goes out - never seen it come back on again. I agree, get it back to the dealer; no worries though, I bet it is just a minor problem.
