may be the speed sensor/on the rear diff. controls abs+speedo on later models/mine was on for about 6 mos before the speedo went lame/replacement fixed both 2000 Mazda B-3000. Problem: ABS light went on, then Check Engine light. Speedometer not functioning until about 30 mph, tranny shifts hard on 2nd to drive shift. Read possible diagnosis' online. Plan A: uncoupled large electrical loom plug under the cab below driver's seat. No moisture, but carefully applied heat gun anyhow. NOPE. Plan B: Replaced ABS speed sensor on the top of the differential. Mazda did not have one so went to Ford, part # F85Z-9E731-AB. Cost: $36.24. Easy fix. Backed truck up on metal ramps , blocked front tire. Left wire plug on the sensor, removed 1 bolt and wiggled the sensor out of it's hole. Then removed plug and plugged to new sensor. Put a film of oil on the sensor's O-ring, and wigged it back down into the hole. 1 bolt later and DONE. Drove it - worked fine, but Check Engine light still on. Disconnected + side battery cable for 2 hours to let that reset, and there you have it.

No, ABS plastic does not contain bisphenol-A. ABS plastic is a polymer made from acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene, and does not use bisphenol-A in its composition. ABS is commonly used in the manufacture of a variety of consumer products such as toys, electronic housings, and automotive parts.
Abs solvent cement is used for joining ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) pipes and fittings together. It creates a strong bond by chemically melting the surfaces of the ABS material, resulting in a permanent connection that is resistant to leaks and pressure. It is commonly used in plumbing and pipe installation applications.
To change the ABS system on a 1990 Toronado Trofeo, you'll need to locate the ABS unit, typically mounted near the master cylinder or firewall, disconnect the battery, remove the old ABS unit by unplugging electrical connectors and hydraulic lines, then install the new ABS unit by reversing the removal steps.

The ABS wires may be unplugged from your rear brakes. On my 94, they plug in behind the rear wheels.
The ABS light might have come on after a rear end collision on a 1997 Aerostar because part of the brake mechanism was damaged in the collision. It is also possible that the ABS light came on because the rim was bent in the collision.
