      see if you have a burned out bulb in your third tail light. It will make the light come on if it is burned out.

          Was it raining? My Formula would ocasionally set the "ABS INOP" light in the rain. My Silverado does something similar quite often.... the "TRACTION OFF" light comes on in rain and snow, just when you need the TCS. Probably the moisture affecting one of the connectors for the sensors?????

              We had cool and dry nights here no rain. I checked the bulbs like Trace said in the back they're good. I've been runing the heat on blower setting 3 during when it came on. I drove it tonight from work didn't come on.
              Also I got to test the abs tonight, almost hit a NYPD squad car. The light turned yellow I was coming down the hill in aresidential area, I am thinking I am going to make it, am passed the light and they come out of nowhere just with their lights flashing no sirens. I hit the brakes no skidding , stopped right infront of their front bumper, we looked at each other and they took of.

                in my 95 i had it come on when a wheel bearing was going bad and and also when a rear sensor got a little loose.
