Brake warning lights

I have a 1994 Ranger, 2.3L, 2wd, with 184,000 miles. I hit a pretty hard bump in the road last night and the ABS and parking brake lights came on on the dash, and they won't go out. I checked the brake fluid, which is fine, and looked at the lines to the front brakes. I can't seem to figure out what the problem is. The truck still stops fine. Any ideas?

I would check the switch on the parking brake, maybe you have a short there. Also a sticking float, bad wiring at the master cylinder could be the problem.

I don't know if your brake system is like my 90, but if it is check the plug going to the RABS valve on the inside of the left frame rail just forward of the fuel filter. (under the drivers floorboard). It may have come off.
