ABS LIGHT STAYS ON TOYOTA CAMRY 1998
There are a lot of different sensors and modules that could cause this. If you perform an inspection and don't find something obvious, you'll likely need to find a scan tool that can access the ABS system on your car and check for diagnostic codes. A tool that also has the datastream mode will further help to confirm which sensors appear to be working or not. From an inspection standpoint, check the wiring for the wheel speed sensors and the tone rings for cracks, chips, or splits. Sometimes the tone rings are inside the wheel bearings and not visible.
I just replaced the rear brakes on my 1998 camry.
Did you use exchange shoes, and were they oversize? The shoes must be adjusted very close to the drum to prevent this lock-on from happening, maintain a high brake pedal, and reduce wear. If the adjusters won't bring the shoes out to lock the wheel when adjusting, they are too small.
A word about adjusting drum brakes...Move the adjuster so that each shoe locks the wheel, then back off till you can turn it more or less freely.You may have to have someone stab the pedal for you the center the shoes as they are backed off. You should hear and feel the drag of the shoes. Do this for all shoes on both wheels.
