I have a 93 Accord and the ABS light comes on....how do I go about pulling the codes out of it?

Answer 1

The ABS control unit should be located in the trunk on the passenger side behind the trim panel. The control unit has a plastic cover over it and the unit is bolted to the inside of the right quarter panel brace near the rear seatback. You need to access the control unit to get the code.

It will take two people to do this. The code is retrieved by turning the ignition switch on then watching the LED on the control unit and counting the number of blinks that indicate the code. The code will start to flash about 10 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the ON position. The code only flashes one time, so to confirm the code you have to shut the ignition switch off and go through the process again. it helps if you watch the LED on the control unit while someone else turns the key on because you don't have much time between turning the key on and when the light starts to flash.

there are several codes that may be present. i don't want to jump the gun and guess what's wrong. If you can get the code do another post for info on what that code means if you can't get the information elsewhere.

the honda dealers have a dedicated ABS checker box for those years to pull the code. The result will be the same if you do it manually

hope that helps
