    Hi to all,

    I just got a reefer trailer, a 2005 wabash trailer with a thermo king unit, works great just that the trailer has no ABS light, it does not appear to have had a light at all, does not show any tampering on the trailer where it could have been removed, does any one know if this is a problem for me down the road? actually this is my second trailer that I have had with no ABS light, I use to have a 2001 lufkin dry van and it also had no ABS light, Any input would be appreciated..

    That ABS light is a more recent requirement on trailers, I do believe... Your 2005 and older trailers don't need that light.

    I believe ABS lights on trailers are required for any trailer manufactured after March 1, 1998
