ABS Light Came ON????

Hi there
ok here the low down my fit has about 300 miles on it we installed a manifold, test pipe, mid pipe and exhaust, for the exterior we used tanabe lower spring after every was installed the car ran fine for about 2 weeks. then i decided to get an alignment so when the car was at the alignment shop they said my driver side front wheel is cambering -1.3 and the passenger side is -.3 so he installed a spc camber bolt and now we have the camber set at -1 in the front after we cruised of the abs light turned on (we had a bad experience with another shop on my buddies is300 where they damaged all the sensors) so i removed all my wheels did a quick inspect and everything seemed ok, reseted my ecu and the abs light turned off but came on like 5 minutes after driving around.

anyone have the same problem??? wanted to see if anyone else have this problem before i take it to the dealer and they bend me over the counter then ...............lol

thanks

wait so the dealer just gawked at you? LOL naw jp.

So they really didn't do anything about the sensor? I mean they should atleast take a look at it and find the problem even if they think the mods void the warranty.

ok went to the dealer today and drop off the car now here are the choices

a: they inspect the car and they find the damage sensor and it is covered under warrenty. GOOD

b: they inspect the car they find the broken sensor and they say it not covered and i got to pay $90 bucks for the inspection, $150 for the part, then $????? for labor

c: i tell what wrong and they dont charge me for the inspection only for parts and labor .

what would you guys do???

even if you tell them whats wrong, i think they'll still charge for inspection. I mean, think if you go to the doctor and you go up to him and say, "yea, i have gangrene" Do you think that the doctor is just going to take your word for it, give you the treatment and meds and just charge you for meds and labor? lol

yeah it true if you come in with a broken leg and you tell the doctor that all you need is a flu shoot but i know where exactly the broken sensor is, just got off the phone with the dealer and it going to be $120 for the sensor and $190 for labor blah now i am just tryin to figure out how to get the car out and maybe order the part and installing it myself

i did a 3 min burnout with my fit and the abs light came on....don't think that this applies, but i have a quick question...why?? i turned the car off and the light was still on...but after hitting 25mph, it turned off...no biggie, but just wondering why it came on in the first place??
