Default Abs sbf no8 fuse

Not sure if this is in the right forum section but i have a MY00 WRX and the ABS light is on constantly in the dash.

Was checking fuses and in the main fuse box the SBF NO 8 fuse is missing.
Is it suppose to be there?

I read this fuse is ABS related.

Thanks

Try putting one in of the correct amps and see if it makes a difference?
If not get a workshop to scan the vehicle for abs codes

I had a scan tool put on it and from memory it said G-Sensor.
I borrowed a mates g-sensor to see if it fixed the issue but the abs light still stayed on.

This all started when i had an aftermarket immobiliser/alarm fitted, dynamco brand.
The shop that fitted it claim it wasnt their fault.

If the fuse is missing, then replace it with new fuse
And see if it fixes it

Got LED brake lights or a blown brake light bulb?

I heard these can also cause an ABS light to stay on.

If you are in Hobart take it into Ultimate Subaru Spares and ask for Troy (he is my brother!)

He can fix it no doubt!

It is in the same building as Moonah Auto Salvage in Hopkins st Moonah!
