abs light
i had the same problem the other day. i think what happened was i got some snow packed into the wheel and i could have messed up the abs sensor on the caliber. later in the day i got a chance to drive at normal speed and the light came off. i guess the snow was thrown out of the wheel. no problems since...

not trying to be a wise a$$, just imformative, theres now way for snow to get stuck in your abs sensor. theres a tone ring bolted to the hub just behind the wheels studs. the tone ring has a a bunch of little teeth that go by the wheels sensor, and that sensor is only 3mm or so away from the tone ring. so when the wheels moving no snow will be in the way of the sensor. often what happens is if you get stuck or are doing donuts it sets off the abs light b/c its a little confused as to why the wheels are turning so differently. just my take on it. sometimes things do go wrong with those sensors, so if your light does not go off soon, take in to get it checked out.

That happens when there is some the ABS computer senses something unusual. For example, ABS light always freaks out on the dyno, or, if all 4 wheels are in the air.
It will go off.
