Rear antilock light has been on recently
My 1989 f-250 7.5 2wd has a rear antilock light that comes on when I get up to 40mph and stays on until I shut the key off. I have found a thread that said to check the brake fluid (done that) change ABS sensor on rear end (done that) check fluid in rear end (done that) all ok. We have found that the pinion nut was loose so we tightened it up. There were fine metal shavings on the magnetic plug on the rear diff we have been watching it closely. I hope I'm not losing a rear end.

The speedometer works perfectly and my dad has 2 other fords and had to tighten up the pinion nut on them too. He believes that it is common for those to back off after time, but like I said we are keeping an eye on it.

Flashout Codes
Whenever the yellow REAR ABS light comes on during normal operation, a flashout code may be obtained to aid in problem diagnosis. If the vehicle is shut off before the code is read from a RABS-I module, the code will be lost. In some cases, the code may reappear when the vehicle is restarted.
