    Usually, the ABS light is supposed to stay on until you've reached (well, your vehicle, that is) a speed of about 5 km/h. If the sensors are playing up the warning light will stay on.

    Good luck!

    As Jojo said. According to the manual with the vehicle, it stays on until a speed of approx 7 kph is reached. At least, mine does.
