ABS code C1206-2003 F150 SuperCrew

Hi Folks,

My amber ABS dash light in my 2003 F150 came on the other day. I changed out the rear pumpkin sensor, ohmed the front wheel sensors (they were within specs posted in FTE forum) and changed out the master cylinder pressure switch under the hood (my left/rear bulb was burnt out around the same time the ABS light came on). After doing all this the light remains....so I had the ABS code read and mechanic advises code C1206 was present. He recommended replacing the "dump valve on the frame rail". He also advised this is a very expensive fix so I might just want to live with the light being on all the time. Has anyone had this happen to their trusty Ford? Is this a expensive part like my mechanic advises? What should my next steps be to get rid of the ABS light and get my ABS system working properly?

Thanks in advance!

Ron
