ABS Light flashes HELP!!!

Hi guys new to the forum. Here is the deal everytime I start my truck the abs light comes on for a second then goes off for maybe a couple seconds if that. Then it starts flashing and flashing and flashing. constantly flashes until I turn off the truck. I have counted the flashes and I have 15 short flashes and 1 long flash then 15 short 1 long etc. over and over and over. If I disconnect the diagnostic connector under the passenger side dash (rabs connector) I can drive the truck without the light coming on. Now when I perform the diagnostic test by grounding the connector then I will start getting the flashes for code 16 which means system ok correct? How do I get this thing to stop flashing when I am just driving around? I have checked the fuse un the instrument cluster and its fine I have also disconnected the abs brain and let it sit to try and reset it and that did not work. Any help guys would be great thanks!!
