I still say the testing the brakes method is fastest, easiest, and most exciting. Then again, im the jackass driving a totalled civic and doing tire-smoking drifts and ebrake turns in the Target parking lot at 1:00 am...

It's a trip the first time you use them and they save your ass.
the only reason why the light turns on in the dash is just to see if the ABS light works, thats all.
