Yes, the 2002 Malibu has an ABS system with sensors at all four wheels.
on all four wheels.. right by the wheel bearing
Two wheel abs will only have wheel speed sensors in the rear. Four wheel abs will have wheel speed sensors at all four wheels.
why would the abs light stay on continuously in a 97 contour? I own a 1998 ford contour and the abs light is on all the time. my car which needs new breaks because when the abs light comes on you could have three wheels grabbing when you hit the breaks or two wheels grabbing. what i would do is either check to see if you need new breaks or they just may needed to be adjusted. your rotors could be so worn down that they could also need to be replaced or honed out.
Not if the vehicle has ABS.
If you have an ABS, take out ABS fuse and see what you get
No. 4WD means the engine delivers power to all four wheels. ABS is automatic braking system, meaning the brakes will not 'lock up' in a panic stop. ABS = Antilock Brake System

No.
There is a problem with the anti-lock brake system. If your ABS activates it will turn the light on. It will go off again once ABS deactivates. You need to understand how ABS works though. It pulses your breaks many times every second when you are trying to stop your vehicle in limited traction like snow or water and also under emergency breaking. This keeps your wheels turning enough that you are able to steer the vehicle while breaking rather than just skidding to wherever the weight of your vehicle takes you when you wheels "lock". Locking the wheels simply means that your brakes have stopped your wheels from turning at all which makes it almost impossible to stear. ABS is designed to keep your wheels from locking.
Not with all four wheels on the ground. As long as the front wheels are up, then yes.Not with all four wheels on the ground. As long as the front wheels are up, then yes.
your abs sensor light is on probably becuase the abs in one or all of your breaks are not working, take it to a mechanic so they can tell you if that is for sure the problem.
