Default ABS Light will not reset on my '95 Volvo 850

I have the same problem with my daughter's car ('95 850 nonturbo). I was able to clear five codes -- and the OBD gives me the 1-1-1 (all clear) code. But the ABS light remains on. And it continues to give me a 3-1-2 code which I can't find referenced anywhere. Any thoughts?

P.S. I *was* able to clear her SRS light WITHOUT taking it to a dealer.

The SRS and ABS are independent of each other and the engine management system. You can clear the ECM codes and turn off the check engine light but that doesn't affect the other two.

If you were able to turn the SRS off it means something was tripped momentarily and the system is good to go now.

If you try to reset the ABS light and it keeps coming back it indicates you have a hard failure and you can't reset the light until the failure is repaired/replaced.

Default All Clear Code - But ABS Light Remains On

Thank you, Kiss4aFrog.

I was given the 3-1-2 code (right front ABS sensor). I repaired the sensor. (Did not replace it.) Am getting the 1-1-1 (all clear) code on the ABS. But the ABS dash light is still on. Subsequent thoughts?
