ABS Light on 99 Ranger

The ABS light in my 99 Ranger came on today. Are there any common problems that can cause this, or are there trouble codes that I can check?

I fixed it this weekend. The ABS sensor was open.

I tried to get the flash code, as shown in a manual that I have, but was unable to. Is there a trick to this?

Look in the "Tech Info" thread, atop this forums main page. Scroll down to the "Brakes & Suspension link. Maybe it has what your looing for in the "how to pull ABS codes"

i just had the same abs light. my codes showed the rear wheel speed sensor( the one on the rear diff). it cost me 23 dollars and ten minutes to install, and the trans even shifts better now.
