Abs Light Flashing

Check to see if the brake lights are working. An open circuit in the wiring, switch or blown fuse can cause ABS light to flash.

Abs Light Flashing

Hi RICHBOW2000 and welcome to FTE

Does your truck have 4 wheel ABS or just rear wheel?
If what Homer said doesnt fix it you should probably take it to your dealer and get the system scanned for trouble codes. These would lead you or a tech in the right direction. It could be something like a bad VSS (speed sensor) on the rear diff or something like that.
