Hi

When I start the car recently the ABS light flashes on, then goes off after a few seconds. I know that when I drove during the snow the ABS activated two or three times. Didn't know what this was at first. Soon learnt to come to a rolling stop where possible instead.:D

Taking it for MOT to council MOT testing centre on Fri 1st Feb. Would like it to pass obviously but assume this would prevent it passing.

Thanks for any advice.

    It should come on when you start up and then go off when it's completed it's self-check. Sounds normal to me.
