I had the rear drums replaced not to long ago and now the ABS light is on. I called the place that did the brakes for me and sadly enough they do not know how to reset the light. I have had the battery disconnected while putting in a new PMD and high pressure pump. I would have thought that the disconnection would have reset the light. I am trying to sell my truck to upgrade to a newer truck and would like it off for the sale. Any help would be appreciated!!!

 

Try to find a service shop with a OBD-II scanner they should be able to reset the ABS light, one question however if you didn't have the light before the brake shoe change and you did after why would you let them get away with not correcting the issue, "we don't know how to turn it off"

IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE answer.

I'd go back and tell then if they can't/won't, you would be taking to the dealer for correcting it, and then present them with the bill for service they failed to perform,.

And if they refuse to make good on it; you will be contacting the State automotive or whatever local licensing bureau that they got permission/certificate to work on brakes from, and let them know that shop is not qualified or equipped to work on major safety equipment for vehicles.

Fines to the shop doing unauthorized/incomplete safety equipment work are significant.
