Default Abs

jack the truck up on jack stands and turn the wheels to either side. find the ABS gears on the axles, or the hub if it's 2WD, and spray the hell out of them and the ABS sensor next 2 them with tons of brake cleaner. u might wanna wear a mask, unless of course u like hallucinating while working on ur car. lol. anyways, the gears look like a metal ring with teeth cut in the outside. the sensor is just a magnet so make sure u take a towel and wipe off any metal shavings that may be stuck 2 it. other than that the system is purely electronic. so if all your mechanicals are in working order ur gonna have 2 take it 2 a shop n have them scan ur ABS system. also check the same on the back tires. even if they only changed the back brakes they most likely removed the rear wheels 2 check the brakes. good luck. and b careful with the ABS system. that's the only thing between u and an accident in hassardous conditions
