I wanna get rid of it asap (2-3 weeks) and my ABS light is on. I understand my brakes will still work fine. But is there anything I can do before I sell the car without spending a fortune? I'm not getting them fixed before I sell it to a stranger. Is there something I can do for free/cheap since this probably wont look very good when someone comes to look at it.

      Pull the main ABS fuse under the hood.

      If you'ro not going to get it fixed before selling, you don't want to do anything. Trying to cover it up will only get you into a position to be sued! Just tell the person that wants to buy it that the ABS needs to be checked out.

      Generally, on Fords, the light comes on when the brake fluid metering valve is out of position. Remove the sending unit at the valve, insert a small threaded tool that holds the piston in place and bleed the brakes. Otherwise, it's the master cylinder. Try bleeding all 4 brake lines.

      Looks to me that your speed sensor(s) is not working. Replace it. It's not that expensive.

      GO TO AUTO ZONE AND HAVE THEM TURN IT OFF FOR YOU.BUT BEFORE YOU DO THAT WOULD YOU WANT TO BUY A CAR FROM SOMEONE WHO DID THAT TO YOU?SOUNDS KINDA DISHONEST TO ME.

      I want free plumbing & electrical work done on my house.You owe it to a prospective buyer to say "hey…the car stops great but the abs light is on".jeez-some of you think dealers are dishonest?.Buyer beware.
