Brake warning lights !+ABS - Toyota Yaris Forums

Yeah--I called that shop I had been going to and they said basically that. They didn't want to touch the connectors out of fear of breaking them. They said their philosophy is that if the problem is intermittent, better to not risk making it permanent and just let it be until it makes itself permanent! I suppose what I will do is wait until the weather warms up and inspect them myself. If I don't see signs of corrosion maybe I'll spray them with contact cleaner a couple times, then take a deep breath--and a screwdriver, and see if I can slide them off. After a full week the indicators haven't come back on, though. But, the weather has been dry and somewhat milder. Arctic air is about to pounce, though. We shall see.

Thanks to all.
