Yeah my ABS light came on today, it was while i was trying to get up a steep hill leaving work. I was wondering was it becus of the snow build up around the tires blocking the ABS?? or me keeping it in high rev's trying to get some grip and moving it caused the ABS Malfunction light to come on..its gone now after i shut the car off and started again..but should i be worried or is it come for winter time??

If one wheel is spinning and your other one isnt, then your ABS light will go on. Mine was on steady (not blinking) but that was due to my ebrake locking up due to the cold.

Nah you should be fine. The only reason im taking mine in is because the rear brakes lock up when its cold. The handbrakes off but the rear brakes are still engaged.
