Default ABS Problems Take2

Grrr, my&nbsp\\;ABS light stays on steady all the time.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;Was hoping it was just a sensor unplugged but cant find anything.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;Monday took it to the dealer and they have called HD Engineer because they cant find what is wrong either.&nbsp\\; Looking for some useful suggestions.
&nbsp\\;
Thanks

Dont know about ABS on HD but I can tell you on my big truck(kenworth) my light came came on twice in 3yrs.&nbsp\\; &nbsp\\;All you have to do is push with your fingers on the sensor(should be a round thingy) on the caliper&gt\\;&nbsp\\; they sometimes back away, from the&nbsp\\;point they pick up the info to activate ABS

Got&nbsp\\;my bike&nbsp\\;back today, dealer reported that one of the two wires that go to the front wheel sensors had a break in it.&nbsp\\; It was not a total break, only the conductor&nbsp\\;and made contact most of the time but not with enough continuity to allow the sensor to report correctly.&nbsp\\; Have no explanation as to how this may have occured, but at least it was covered under warrenty.
