I had a '92 and a '93 9000 (both w/ ABS of course) and neither of them
ever behaved this way. The ABS light should come on at starting and go
off within a few seconds. You should not have to move before the light
goes off. Diagnosing the problem may be tricky until the unit fully
fails. So long as the ABS light does go off eventually I guess I would
just continue to monitor it.
