can someone please point me in the right direction? 91 ss 4eat with the nippon abs unit

all i can see under the dash is two black connections and two green connections, and one white one far up with a sort of cap/insert covering it.

is it one of these? where is the L terminal?

The one you are looking for is near the fuse box on the floor. It is a green connector you need to remove. It is a small green wire. All you do is ground one of the pins and the abs light will flash. Let me get you some links.

Over here i see these wires. I recall seeing these two wires dangling with my car, never used them though to find my codes. I use the green wire near the fuse box on the driver side floor.

the light should go away once the problem is gone.

I am of course assuming that you have found the connector and checked the codes already. all i'm saying is that the the light will be off until you srat driving again and it senses a problem again until you fix it.

the plug is a green plug that is not connected to anything. you may or may not find a black wire taped to the harness that you can pull out to stick into the green plug one pin at a time. This was wired into some cars from what i hear. you can just jam a wire into one of the terminals and ground it, turn the ign on and it will start flashing codes.
