Anti Lock Light

[melancholy55]

Hi I just bought my 03 Evo about 2 months ago. When I am driving 70 MPH and below my car runs fine, but when I go above 70 MPH for about a minute or less my Anti Lock light comes on. When I stop and turn the car off then back on the light always turns off. This happens every time I go above 70 for some reason. Just wondering if anyone had an answer for this or a reason?

Thanks you.

What is an Anti Lock light? Are you referring to the ABS warning light or something else?

Its the ABS warning light but on the car it says Anti Lock

Maybe it's a ABS sensor going bad? why not have the code checked out and see what they say, because if it was me I wouldn't want something like that to fail at 70 mph or above..

I just don't understand why it does it just if I go over 70mph. If I keep the car at 69mph it does not come on. That just seems strange to me.

Hmm, I haven't come across this problem before. It does seem strange. That's just one of the risks of buying a used Evo, especially an 03. Almost all of them have been abused to some degree.

Start by checking the fluid level in the brake resevoir. You might be on the border of being too low. If that's good and not the problem, take the car to a shop you trust, preferably a trustworthy Mits dealership, and have them diagnose the issue. I recommend Quality Mits in Denver and recommend you stay away from Phil Long Mits in Co Springs. It could very welll be a bad sensor as SicLanevo suggested.
