I was out in Utah with a trailer during the week and when I was pulling a 6% grade the abs light came on and stayed on until I shut the truck down for the night about 3 hours later. The next morn when I fired it up the light stayed on for a minute or so and then went off. It came on later in the morning again when I was into it cause of a strong head wind, but it went off about a half hour later. Then when I was coming home with out the trailer I was doing about 70 for a while and then I went up to 75 mph and about a half hour later it came on again and then went off a little while after I went down to 70 mph. Anyway, what makes the abs light come on? Could it be a wheel sensor? I was going to check the brake fluid level but I forgot I think that the brake light would come on though, but I was gonna check anyway. thanks in advance, Dale

Best thing to do...is get the PCM read for codes. Each time the ABS light goes on...a code is thrown.

Much better than chasing parts...IMO.
