My ABS light went on after I had the brakes done. This occured several weeks after. My mechanic look at it and said the computer board was broken and it would be expensive. So now the automatic braking system does not work.

Took car to dealership to see why ABS brake light stayed on. They found the bearings had fallen out of ABS box. The mechanic stated it was a sealed unit and he did not know how the bearings fell out. ABS system does not work.
