I think this is why my ABS light was kicking on

When i'd punch the car the ABS light would sometimes go on and stay on till i restart the car. Today while doing the spark plug wires on the driver side.. i noticed my (idiot) mechanic zip strapped the closest to the driver cyclinder's wire up against the ABS Wheelspeed sensor wire.. so i guess some electrical interference was causing a surge or something in the ABS sensor causing the computer to shut it off... Hasn't turned on yet (took it for 1 semi long test run today, no light at all.)

Yes, plug wires do cause interference with the ABS wiring if routed too close. That's an easy fix.
