my anti lock brake light staying on, any help out there.

 

The only way to know for 100% what is wrong is to take it to the dealer.
Is the brake pedal fighting you yet?

 

Try tapping the two front abs sensors down,lightly. sometimes they back off just enough to disable the abs( too big an air gap).

if that don't do it, either have a dealer run diagnostics, or pull the fuse and live without the abs.

 

What year? There is a blink method you can use on the D1. See attached.

 

where are the sensors at? like to try tapping them first

 

They are on the backside of the rotors.
No need to remove the wheels, just crawl under the truck and you will see them, about as big around as a cigar with a wire coming out of it.

 

On the front, they are on the top of the swivel ball. On the rear, they go in from the sides.

I really don't know why that .pdf isn't in the tech section. Took me 20 minutes to download 14 codes, and now I have abs. No light....after 5 years. Took out to a gravel road to test. works perfectly. After 5 years of no abs because I didn't want to take it to the dealer and spend $100 to have them cleared.

I would like to thank jbriggs for posting that. I have seen it before, but never explained on OBD2 systems. That was soooooo freaking easy. I feel stupid for not having done it before. I could have used ABS on the snow several times.. Thanks dude!!!!!
I just read and cleared all of my ABS codes.

 

wow, great resource. Thanks again man! I can't believe this hasn't been discussed more and the suggestion has been to pull the fuse.

 

What was wrong with your ABS?
How much to fix it?

 

nothing at all. There were all kinds of faults thrown, but I rebuilt the front brakes and wheel bearings when I got it. I had seated the sensors and cleaned everything, but the light remained on. You have to clear a hard set code. I just didnt want to pay $50 or more to have the dealer read old codes and try to sell me something. Most dealers will not clear the codes unless they fix something. Once you read it and pull the pin out, it is gone. Most of my faults were with the sensors and just old. There were a few for serial comms, but I will bet that was when I had the fuse pulled. I have driven the crap out of her all day long and no faults whatsoever.

Cost me a paper clip to read and clear the codes...

I still can't believe that light is out......

Have you done this yet to see why yours is on?? I would suggest you throw a fuse back in it and see. Even if it comes back, you know where to start looking. I know some people don't like abs, but I do in the snow...
