ABS module codes

ABS and brake light are on full time. I replaced abs sensor and abs module. this didn't help. I pulled the codes from the abs module with the help of an earlier post. The code was four blinks with the last one being longer than the other three. It just kept doing these four blinks over and over toll I turned off the key. Can anybody tell me what this code means? Thanks Jordan P.S. I have a 98 f-150 ext 4x4 with a 4.6 and 4r70w trans.

A code 4 means open/grounded RABS valve reset circuit which can be caused by Bulkhead connector (between engine compartment and instrument panel).
Anti-lock brake control module or RABS valve connectors not fully seated with component.
Circuitry.
RABS valve.
Anti-lock brake control module
I think that you have a shop manual that will help with the tests for this

It's been a while but I finally got around to fixing the abs problem. It was the rabs valve bolted on below the master cyl. Replaced it and lights went out and abs works again. Thanks for all the help, Jordan
