Bill, do you think that will take care of the hard shifting, no speedo or does that just take care of the abs light? Thanks.

Did you remove the rear end sensor or unplug the RABS module?
If you unplugged the module and replaced the sensor in the rear end and checked the wiring under the truck and it and all the fuses are OK and still have the problem then the problem is in the rear end or a bad PSOM.

I unplugged the RABS module. Is there a more detailed diagram of the PSOM location? Also do I have to reprogram this or just replace it?

I just replaced the PSOM. I still have no speedo and very hard shifting. Will re-programing the PSOM that I just installed have any effect with the problems I am still having ?

If it was a used PSOM it may have been bad, else you may have a bad tone ring inside the rear end.

So I finally got my speedo,abs, hard shifting, and, odometer problems all taken care of. After looking high and low, trying this and that. I took my 94 F150 to a guy who deals with electrical problems. It turned out to be the VSS and one of the wires was pinched. It cost me $ 250.00, but after all the hassle , the money I spent was well worth it. Thanks to everyone who helped lead me in the right direction. I would like to give a great big THANKS to Bill (Subford). I appreciate that you put up with all the questions!!
