No, not unless you want to test every wire, sensor and solenoid in the
system.

However, 95% of the time, a wheel sensor is to blame. Go to each wheel and
check for an open circuit in each wheel sensor. If all okay, check the
connectors, these get corroded and lose contact.

All that will take time, if you knew the code, you could go right to the
problem.

My ABS light started came on when the alternator started to go out. ABS
must be the first thing to go.

Ya, that happened to me as well, but usually other lights start coming on
shortly after that. Air bag, battery, seat belt, etc.

yes jump where the diag. plugs in across a and b amd count the flashes of
your check engine light when it shows 55 the test is done mark dowwnany #s
in between als the light will blink like 3 times then 5 this is a code 35
for example and it should repeat three times hope this helps
