Abs problems

[pen-cap-chew]

Ok..i'm sorry if this has allready been posted. I looked around and didn't find anything..
I was driving about 70 and had to slam on the brakes. So far no problems. about 5 min later i go to hit the brakes and they feel like there slipping. like they were trying to grab but couldn't. after that my abs and break light came on. I checked the fluid and it is fine. My brakes still work but the light has me worried. also my 3rd brake light is out now.. I havn't had time to check anything b/c of work but i don't know whee to start. thanks for any help

Re: Abs problems

replace your third brake light first

Re: Abs problems

they would have been hotter than hell after slamming on the brakes and wouldnt work as well, chances are they are fine, and for future reference your brakes are pretty much always slipping, if they feel fine now they are fine

Re: Abs problems

dad's tahoe did this alot and he was told that some gm's have this problem. My malibu did the same thing a few times. It kinda acted like it couldn't catch and would roll a few feet and then grab quickly. It happened like 3 times in a 4 year period and al you have to do is let up and get back on (pump) and nothing to worry.
