Default Intermittant ABS light

The ABS light on my 94 GS300 sometimes comes on for a while, then turns off.

Also, I feel a slight pulsing when lightly braking during some turns.

Should I be worried about this?

Check your brake fluid level. Also, how worn are your brake pads/rotors?

Brake fluid level, pads, and rotors all look good.

Can the ABS code be pulled after the light goes off?

Thanks for the help.

I changed the brake pads, even thought they still were quite thick, and the brake fluid level was not low, but this appears to have fixed the problem!
