The ABS system requires 10.5 volts to operate, so if the charging output of the alternator was below this level, the ABS light would come on, and the ABS system would shut down. If the output is far below this level (say, zero, if the alternator failed), your battery would not charge, and the car wouldn't start. Have your charging system checked.
An ABS fault.
Problem with the ABS system.
No, the light should only come on for a second or two. If the light stays on that indicates that you have a fault somewhere and that the ABS system is disabled.
Every time you start and drive the vehicle the abs self tests itself. If there was a problem with the abs, the abs light would stay on until it is fixed. Also when the abs light stays on the abs system will not function.
When you start your car all / most of the warning lights and other light in the dashboard will come on. It is just the procedure of the car starting and checking all the systems. If it stays on throughout the day, then the computer has detected a malfunction and set a code.
The ABS light is most likely on because of low voltage, same reason for the battery light to be on. Get your alternator tested.

A you sure this light does not say, ABS. ABS stands for Anti-Lock Brakes. If the light is on there is a problem with the ABS system.A you sure this light does not say, ABS. ABS stands for Anti-Lock Brakes. If the light is on there is a problem with the ABS system.
Not unless one of the sensors was damaged.
