How to Reset My 1995 Ford Windstar ABS Light

The anti-lock brake system (ABS) on the Ford Windstar is controlled by an ABS computer. This computer illuminates an ABS warning light on the instrument panel when there is a problem with the brakes. You can reset the ABS light on your 1995 Ford Windstar right from your home using an OBD code reader. This small, computerized device can be purchased from any auto parts store. Some stores will even loan you their code reader for free for the purpose of resetting the codes.

Instructions

    1

    Put the key into the ignition and turn it to the "On" position, taking care not to start the engine.

    2

    Plug the code reader into the diagnostic port under the steering column on the dashboard, then turn the code reader on.

    3

    Navigate through the code readers menu using the arrow keys. Select "ABS" then "Clear Codes" or similar type of command.

    4

    Wait for the code reader to return to the main menu. This is an indication that the ABS code has been cleared.

    5

    Unplug the code reader and start the engine. Check to see that the ABS light has shut off.

  1. It still has somewhat the same instructions with the new ford units. I thought that there will be a difference on how you repair it. - MyAirbags.com
