if your ABS caused the check engine light to turn on, then it WILL come on again.

Generel rule of thumb guys... If your CHECK ENGINE light comes on. You should have the code read unless you specifically know the problem. If you're in the US, Autozone will read your code for FREE. I realize you're not in the US but I suggest getting your code read if/when it comes back on and post it here. The people here will be able to better diagnose the problem.

As for your ABS... I'd take it to a brake specialist or the dealership.
