intermittent ABS light

have a 95 TA. occasionally while cruising (not braking), the ABS Inop light comes on and the low trac and brake lights flash. after a minute or so, they all go out. brakes are good. any ideas?

Re: intermittent ABS light

Those dash lights use a ground that's terminated on the passenger side inner fender, next to the red positive post. Common failure for this ground point to make poor contact and give you a "light show". Remove the ground stud and sand off the paint under the stud. Clean everything up and retighten.
