abs light on, brakes not releasing, help please
as you can tell in the title, my abs light is on and my brakes wont release, i was wondering if anyone would know what the problem is, i'm not sure if my driver side wheel bearings are bad, but for a few weeks now i thought i heard a slight humming. someone told me that it could be my abs pump gone bad but i doubt it. to get the break to release all i have to do is turn the car on and off again, this only happens when i really have to hold brakes, it does not occur under slight braking. can an one tell me whats up?

A wideband O2 sensor??
No. You need an ABS scanner. You'll probably have to bring it to a local shop or your dealer.
Actron recently came out with a scanner for ABS systems on Domestic cars, it does all powertrain codes as well as ABS. You can get one at advance auto for $229.
