ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
The blinkers stop working sometimes while driving. The ABS lights comes on stability control. Headlights turn off and on while automatic twilight is on. The electrical system seems to have problems. The brakes, blinkers and gauges malfunction. I've looked on the internet and it seems a lot of corvette owners from model year 1997-2004 are experiencing the same prolems. The alarm system also fails. I find this to be dangerous problem while driving when the electrical system fails to operate.

Numerous problems with computer readout message: service ABS, service active handling and service traction control. Dealer has found that communication is being lost between the steering sensor and computer. No reason why. Possible loose pin connection? All other equipment checks out ok.

Abs service light goes on. Abs system failure. Results in disabling of ABS, traction control and active handling. Has happened 4 times. Chevy had initially advised shutting off car and restarting: it gets rid of code and car will function normally. If the random event occurs during emergency situation it can result in loss of control of car, I.e., that brakes can lock.
I have a 2002 chevrolet corvette that is in for repair for ABS and other. The part a ABS module does not seem to be available and may not be for another 2 to three weeks. This car has been in since 5/5 and I have no idea when I may get the vehicle back. I do not think it is reasonable to have a vehicle in for such a long time. The vehicle uses a lot of oil also, and engine noise is a problem.
