Question: Hi, I have 1997 Nissan Altima GXE. It's running currently 109,000 miles plus. Lately I have started getting ABS light on the dash board. I can easily go to a Nissan Service center to fix this. But the funny things is that it lights up only during the night and not on all nights.
So, I am not sure what to do with it. This may look weird, but I am telling you the truth. So, I am not sure whether I should go to some service station and my actual worry is that what if the light does not come during their test?
To give the full info, my power steering oil has a leak. So, I regularly fill the power steering fluid whenever it goes below the level or near the lower level. Does this have any link to ABS problem? Have you had faced any problems like this?
Thanks in Advance. Regards, Sheik
Answer: Changing the ABS relay in your Nissan Altima is necessary when the ABS warning light is lit on the driver control panel display. It is usually impossible to stop a car that has a malfunctioning ABS relay as the relay controls the entire anti-lock brake system.
