Well the other night i was heading to the store when i had to make an abrupt stop and , slowed down quickly... not even quick enough to have to lock up or for ABS to kick in. But i noticed right away my ABS light came on, all my lights seemed to dim. I then finished up at the store drove home, with the lights dimmed, only to shower and leave the car out for a while thinking of what it could of been. Started back up, ran to like 30seconds and as soon as i started to move, the ABS light came on and everything dimmed... Well, drove over to my girlfriends house left the car out over night, and a completely dead battery is what i had in the morning. Could this be a cause of a bad relay?

So a few days later i replaced the alternator only for the battery light to come on... hoping that it was that and it wasnt, i pulled the battery and got it tested... one out of the 6 cells were completely hammered. Sooo, I replaced the battery only to still have the ABS and the Battery light come on and stay on???? any ideas? I need this vehicle fixed in a hurry!!! Thanks, Matt

take a look at your brake fluid level sensor, make sure that stop didnt cause it to come loose.
