when i start my car the abs light pops up and won't go away.

It's telling you there's a problem with you're ABS, most likely a bad sensor, you'd have to have a garage diagnose it.

There's a problem so at least one wheel wont brake correctly

you have a code. you can pull it from doing this: http://www.team-integra.net/sections...icleID=493join the site, its free

There's something wrong with your brakes. It could be anything. Might be something minor, or it could be serious. You may have air in your breaklines, or a sensor could be off. There's a number of things, just go get it checked it out.

the abs is a system SEPARATE from the braking system. its sole purpose is to prevent the wheels' locking up in panic stops or on slippery surfaces.the light is alerting you to an abs malfunction. for some reason, the system is now inactive. this means that while your integra will brake normally, you lose the ability for the system to prevent a possible skid under braking. i've seen debris on the tips of abs sensors, giving this condition, so start there. if the sensors are clean, follow the wiring for any breaks, or a disconnection. also check the fuse(s) for the abs pump/module. if you replace a blown fuse, only to have it blow again, definitely have a reputable shop look into it. there may be an electrical or mechanical issue beyond your scope.
