Strange electrical gremlins

Last week my ABS light comes on (RABS valve is bypassed) It also took out my brake lights and emergency blinkers. On the way home last night my emergency lights came on and now the bake lights are working and ABS off. Any suggestions on where to start looking

Grounds? Make sure everything is grounded well; batteries to engine and everything else to either batteries OR engine.

Check the connection at the rear of the truck, drivers side inside frame rail. There good for getting dirty and having poor connection.
