My ABS light also comes on while driving in wet conditions, during the winter months and after getting the under-side cleaned in the drive through car wash. If the light turns off while in these conditions (my light does go out without shutting the car off sometimes) and I turn on the AC or the Defroster the light kicks on again. I don't see why the AC system would be tied to the ABS system. I told my mechanic buddy about this and he thought I was crazy until he saw it for himself. We were driving down the road, no ABS light. I turned knob to AC and about 1 second later the light is on. Other than wires being shorted together he had no explination for what might be causing it.

Any one else see this one before?
