Default Abs sensors messed up
Pulled two codes:

00290 035
ABS Wheel Speed Sensor,LR-G46

00287 035
ABS Wheel Speed Sensor,RR-G44


Anyone know what went wrong... When i start the car, just the ABS light comes on then afer driving a few seconds the brake light lights up and flashes. When we cleared them, i drove for a few seconds and both lit up.

try cleaning your abs sensor, could have brake dust on them.

Default I would guess an electronics cleaner of some sort.
Probably pick it up at radio shack.
