Nope. I asked the mechanic the same question, he said that he could turn off the abs light, but once I re-start the car, it'll do a start-up check and the lights would come back on.

I suppose opening up the dash and disconnecting the bulb would work. If anyone got pic on opening up the dash?

I was told this is impossible by my tech. That the they simply cant permanently disable the warning lights while this malfunction is still an issue. That they will show up again every time u start the car.

I haven't been able to come to the forum often, but I posted two weeks ago that my lights came on. When I went to the dealer they said it was the rear left speed sensor and wire harness that has to be changed.

2 weeks later still waiting for the parts, When I called they said there are a lot of people waiting for the same part.

Toyota should make a recall on this to change all sensors and harness.

Former_Neon · 01-27-2009, 04:52 PM

When I asked the service advisor if he had a lot of customers complaining about this he said no (probably lied). I told him that plenty of people were complaining online about it and his first response was, "Oh, is it an American site?" What the hell does that have to do with anything? It's unreal the way Canadian retailers, etc deal with their customers. It's never the fault of the manufacturer/retailer and always the fault of the customer somehow.
I hope this recession sure changes the attitudes of those who deal with the public.

I'm so happy I don't have ABS, but wish those who do Best of luck!!!!!!!!!!!1

devinlamothe · 01-28-2009, 05:03 PM

If they can recall the seatbelt issue (where apparently NO ONE has been affected in North America yet) they should be recalling these sensors/wiring harnesses. Serious, WTF Toyota??

Maddman · 02-04-2009, 09:50 PM

My Yaris lights come on and then turn off. Sometimes it's each time I start the car, other times it a couple of days. They turn on when it's really cold outside.

(still waiting for the parts to come in)

zghansar · 02-05-2009, 10:22 PM

Update: so I went into Dixie Toyota and was happy to know that my car is still under warranty. They took a couple of hours to do checks and then told me that my rear right censor is busted and they ordered the part and it is on back order and will be a while before I will be called in for repair.

EBoOGie · 02-08-2009, 07:19 PM

my "ABS" and "Brake" light is on my 07 sedan. ABS is not suppose to be workin when it on correct? A few times when im drivin, and come to a stop, the ABS seems to be working for no reason. ( the abs noise, sounds mechanically clicky. pedals feel soft and spongee, ONLY sometimes this happens.) Conditions were dry, no ice, no water so i was not skiddin when i heard the abs noise kick on. is this the same thing everyone is experiencing?
are you experiencing-
- the abs and brake lights as well as noise?
-or only abs and brakes lights on only?
im confuse

I also had similar symptoms, the ABS was out of wack and activated for no reason, but this only happened when the ABS light was off. Immidately after the ABS acted-up, the warning light would once again come back on and ABS would be deactivated, which was preferable to the abs pulsing away for no reason.

Former_Neon · 02-12-2009, 12:49 AM

Well, I'm still waiting for the speed sensor and wiring harness to come in. My ABS is working again though. The lights have turned off on the instrument panel and all is normal for the time being.
As if Toyota could give a damn.

Maddman · 02-09-2009, 07:29 AM

i've been getting both conditions that you're getting eboogie. since it's been determined to be a faulty speed sensor, i'm going to assume that sometimes the system is going to work when ever the sensor feels like it. the lights are on cause the sensor threw a code to the ECU. it doesn't mean that the system it completly inactive (i guess). hope that clears some confusion.

i'm still waiting for the part to come it. it's been over a month of waiting now. now i'm probably going to have to go back a second time for the seat belt recall. i hope that they can do it all at once.

EBoOGie · 02-12-2009, 05:50 PM

i had the car checked out today, I mad an appt monday for today. the light of course went away two days ago. but they didnt figure anything out, i have my rotors turned, and rear drum adjusted, and the recall done. we will see if abs acts up. good luck guys

Former_Neon · 02-13-2009, 01:42 PM

Well, I'm still waiting for that speed sensor and wiring harness to come in. I did get a call from the local Toyota dealership today, however, about an outstanding recall on my Yaris concerning a seat belt bezel. Anyone know anything about this one?

I just asked for information on it. I didn't ask for the attitude to go with it.
