I dont know if i havent waited or just havent noticed this but today after i changed the oil in my rig, i went to turn it on and wated a second before i cranked it over, the two beeps stopped then like 2 seconds later i heard a sound like a pump or motor in front of the steering wheel (sounded weak and has me worried) it has done all three times i have went to turn the engine on.. Does anyone have this happen to them? Is it normal?

Does it kind of sound like a little growl? If so, that's pretty normal. Mine does it, along with a 01 F-350 Chassis Cab that the place I work at just bought. No problems with mine here, so I wouldn't worry too much.

It's the ABS system resetting.
