ABS light stays on. I have replaces the rear rotors and brake pads all around. I DO NOT have any brake warning light on. All fluid levels have remained at full status in two weeks of driving but ABS light remains on. So I am looking for an answer as to why?

Did the light come on after the rear brake service? Possible that a wheel speed sensor came disconnected. The connection is on the rear of the hub, at the centerline. Otherwise, It would need scanned for codes, and that would give us some direction. I know when the rear brakes are service, the connections can be vulnerable to coming undone, or left undone if disconnected to access caliper bracket bolts to get rotors off.

Stupid ME!
After replacing the rear rotors and brake pads I (oops) forgot to plug back in the sensors. Works fine now, of course. Thanks for the attempted fix. I'm the one needing a fix, where the fridge?
