ABS non-operational, no light in dash

Last weekend, I had to brake hard on the road and that's when I realized that the ABS was not working (no pulsing). The ABS light on the dash is off before I start and after I start the car. I searched the forum and most of the posts were for the light being on. Any ideas where to begin to troubleshoot? This is for a 1990 190e 2.6. Thanks!

Has the ABS ever worked? Are you sure there is a lamp installed in the warning light?

I never really noticed it. I have a feeling that the light was never on with the other lights before I started the car. So, I have a feeling that it never worked.

First step would be to get the ABS warning light working, pull the instrument pod and shuffle some bulbs around.
