I have a 2003 Jimny 1.3 JLX mode MT, manual transmission, 90,000 miles on the clock. The ABS light is constantly flashing amber from the time the ignition is switched on until switched off. Diagnostics indicate no DTC's. The local garage has checked that the ABS is working as are the sensors. Removing the fuse makes the light glow continuously amber, indicating a fault. The light is not meant to flash at all.
I've been told this problem is an MOT failure, which would be dreadful for me, plus it all seems to be working correctly apart from a flashing light. Please ca anyone help? Thank you

Thank you Martin. Sadly, I have the technical ability of a pebble, but have bought a OBD2 scan tool and downloaded a Suzuki app which tells me that there are no faults on the ABS/ESP to clear. Do you think that getting someone to do the manual thing that the link suggested, will give a different answer? Thank you!

I think it might as depending on the age of the vehicle it is the only way to read the abs fault
