ABS Light on

ABS Light on
My ABS light comes on approximately 10 minutes after driving on cold days and approximately after 5 minutes during hot days after I first turn the car and drive, it just stays on as I drive. But if I just turn the ignition off and re-start the car, the light will come off but will turn back on after a few minutes of driving. I had the codes pulled by GM and they said they found none. I allready replaced both font wheel/hub sensors and still same issue. I have tested the ABS system and it works fine while the light is off. once the light comes the ABS is disabled. Anybody have any clues ?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Take it back to the dealer when the antilock light is on, and have them pull the antilock brake codes, that way they can't claim there is no code there. The antilock codes are different than PCM codes.

davidva77 - What year is your car?
In my 1998 SSE I have both my ABS and Traction Off lights on. Scanned for codes with lights on (they are on 100% of the time the ignition is on) and there are no codes pertaining to the ABS or TC). ABS and TC don't work either. All sensors are in place, connected.
I'm going to unplug and clean the connections since it'* easy and free.

No ABS or Traction Control codes with either scan tool. :?: :?
