ABS light on

I went by the shop today because they got my tuck put back together & running, while I was there with the truck idling the ABS light came on.
The truck has not been driven since having the heads replaced.
The TECH is going to be looking into it , but I was just looking for some input.

Possible he could have left a connector off or loose that took a little while for it to detect. If it was idling long enough to get good an warm it is possible that it melted a wire that wasn't in the right spot after the heads were done...

how long has it been sitting ? check your batteries. when mine did that i realized my batteries were crap. i bought two brand new batteries the highest amp rating i could find and put them in.
the abs light was still on when i started the truck, but as soon as i got halfway down the block it went off.
i think low voltage sets off the abs light for some reason
