I think I broke something.....
Last night while "playing" with my truck on a back road, my ABS light came on...OK...But what was wierd was when I would take off slowly, the truck would shift real hard into 2nd. Additional wierdness is that the speedometer doesn't work until it shifts to 2nd.
If I take off and put my foot into it, it shifts normal....speedo still doesn't work until 2nd gear though.
I did test the anti lock and the tires locked up, so that is definatenly not working correct.
Did I tear the guts outta the tranny AND screw up my ABS???
BTW, 1999 SD 4x4 V-10 w/ 48K miles....Any guesses???

Unscrew it and unplug it, then opposite for the install.
But, once after hitting a pile of iron ore rock one day mine did the same thing, a rock had jarred it loose. All I did was disconnect it, clean it and reinstalled it.
Might work - try it.

Thanks all,
I wasn't sure which connection was which so I unplugged, cleaned all of the connections I could find. I think there was 3.
I HAVE GOT TO GET A MANUAL!!!!
Still have the same problem...Its in the shop right now and he thinks it a bad speedo sensor. Said the ABS and shift points are all tied together. You guys got it right!

You are blessed, for you have seen the light.
Manuals are hard to find, but worth the effort. I am particularly enjoying the V10 with a 6spd and 4.30 gears. Believe it or not, my rear tires still have some tread on them (I will fix that, however).
