    If the light stays off until you reach about 10mph, odds on its one of the wheel sensors. You can check them with a dmm on ohms range. They are normally about 5-700k. The odd one out will be the duff one - may have a much higher reading that refuses to settle. hth

    Light comes on immediately after starting the car regardless if vehicle is moving or not. I checked the wheel sensors all are reading about the same. Next thought? Anyway to pull codes?
