ABS Light On

Hey I want to say thanks in advance for this forim and all the great info. I have a 2005 Super Duty with 85,000 miles. I replaced the brakes 2 months ago and all has been working well. Today I got on it a little (throttle) and my ABS light came on. It comes on seconds after the initial start-up sequence and remains on. Is this a sensor and can I read the codes from my dashboard to find this out?

It's probably either a dirty sensor (brake dust from the new pads?) or a loose connection.

Time to crawl under there and take a look.

Check for faulty wiring / connection at all 3 sensors.

Also do a master reset see link below.
