Default 1992 Accord Master Cylinder

While I was putting a new radiator in my 1992 Accord Ex Wagon I decided to replace the master cylinder because it had been leaking where it meets the booster. After bench bleeding it (the best I could) I put it on the car and thoroughly bled all 4 wheels. When I took the car out for the first time the ABS light came on after 2 minutes. I was wondering what could make the light come on. Could it be that I did not bleed the brakes well enough? The light had never been on prior to the master cylinder replacement. Any insight to this would be much appreciated.

I'd check the ABS codes by jumping the service connector to be sure but it sounds like you have air in the abs system (pump over run code?). If so bleed the abs unit....be careful and follow the proper procedure for doing so.
