Yes, you can see it right underneath the AC line next to the engine. The best way to reach it is to remove the plastic cover thats over the radiator overflow tank. Theres about 6 or 7 plastic pins that look like screws. You just turn them to the left then you can pull them out.

The brake light shouldnt come on that Im aware of, only the Slip,TCS and ABS lights are on in my car, maybe because I have an 06 and you have an 05. As far as the pump coming on do you mean when the key is in the ACC position ? Because that should be a self test. I would say at this point to get to a mechanic that you trust and have them check for codes.

I just bought my son a 2006 Maxima, Mistake!!!! Just had to replace the 5 speed auto Trans and now the ABS light is on and a pump is running. I have a fault code C1140 ABS Actuator relay circuit Fault.
Is this the same problem you guys are talking about?
I'm in South Carolina.
I just went out and unplugged the front wheel sensor but the pump didn't stop running. I disconnected the battery and that stopped it!

It will burn out the abs controller. That part costs $1300.00. First thing you should do is open the hood of the vehicle and follow the wire for the right front abs sensor. You will see a plug above where the motor mount connects to the passenger inner fender area. Unplug that connector. It will disable the abs system so the pump will stop running.

If you are mechanically inclined you could repair this. The rear hubs need to be removed and cleaned. Also the plastic cap behind the hub needs to be modified. After removing the hub you will be able to remove the plastic cap behind it. You will see a hole in the cap where the sensor goes through it. Cut the top portion of the cap so the hole looks like a U and reinstall it. Clean the corrosion around the bearing mating surfaces and reinstall the rest of the parts. Do this for both rear wheels. Be sure to reconnect the front sensor after the repairs are made. You will need to have the codes cleared after repairing.
I'm having this problem and I see that you can fix it for 150$ I'm in Ithaca and was wondering the soonest you could fix it
