ABS Instrument Light

ABS Instrument Light
I own a 2000 F-150, 4.2L V6 and just recently had my ABS Light on my instrument panel stay on. My owner's manual states that it requires servicing, but am wondering if anyone knows what I have to look forward to?

Is it possible that adding Brake Fluid could correct the problem?

I also have not replaced my brake pads yet and have approx 54K miles on the truck. Could this possibly be the cause for the constant light?

Thanks for any insight.

Desperately seeking to save big $

I'm not sure what the ABS light indicates on your truck, but get a Haynes manual or a Ford/Helm CD and it'll tell you exactly.
