rear antilock idiotlight
I just bought this truck and have a couple issues, this one bothers me the most.
The idiotlight stays on all the time, obviously cause theres a problem.
When I hit the brakes the rear lock up. It just snowed today so that might get interesting driving when I need my brakes.
Is there a number of things it could be or maybe one??
The previous owner told me that it happened once before and that the piston needs to be realigned....
He and I have no idea what the means. Any ideas??
Thanks

It's a pretty simple system and a repair manual should tell you how to pull abs codes w/o a scanner. Unequal pressure between the wheels or a bad hose acting as a 1-way valve can trigger it as well as speed sensor issues.
