As a general precuation on any car with ABS if the light comes on when driving you should get it checked out by a competant fitter with the correct fault reader - which probably means a Hyundai dealer.

Your handbook probably tells you to drive with caution and go to a dealer ASAP which is sound advice - faults can range from simply a dirty speed sensor through to major electrical and pump failure.

Don't understand what you mean by "cracked rings" but if you mean you have a cracked brake disc then that is really serious and the car should not be driven under any circumstances - are you sure it is the ABS lite too? If it is a pad/disc warning lite then that is just as scary with "cracks"

Don't take a chance with brakes - get it checked!

I think Judy means the 'brake shoe' symbol of the brake warning light. If that comes on as well as the ABS light, it does sound as though there is something seriously amiss that needs to be looked at post-haste.

Dont take any chances with brakes, get it checked ASAP, and if you are in doubt dont drive it. I had a servo go on me many years ago, was absolutely terifying experience, pedal went rock hard.
