As I was moving it down our long drive, the ABS light went on....stayed on until I pumped the brakes several times at a stop, and turned the ignition on and off and on again.

Does this mean I am having the infamous sticking caliper pins problem?

The problem you have is rust on the rotor where the wheel speed sensor picks up the wheel speed from. After you drive a shot distance it most of the time will clear itself but I have seen cases where I had to sand the rust off in that area. Sticking pins would cause the brakes to drag and over heat but would not turn the ABS light on.

Thanks speed racer!

I drove it for about 50 miles and the light never came on again, so I'm good to go this Summer I believe! (The motorhome drove and ran GREAT!!!)

Marc,

I had a similar problem about 3 years ago. The the dealer's tech reset the ABS code light. He said it might be due to non-use. So far it hasn't happened since.
