ABS/Brake light on

The ABS & brake dash lights came on on my 06 DC/OR V6 the other day for no apparant reason. Fluid is up, everything works, light went out after turning off ignition and restarting but came back on again after a few minutes. Don't know if it is relevant but I put a lift on my truck recently (3 months ago?) but the light never came on until now. Could this be just a faulty sensor? Where is it located?

 

I just noticed that the light go on and off intermittently. Where exactly do I look for the sensors?

 

hello.. did you figure out the way to fix this.

Im having the same problem with my tacoma.

thanks

 

What was the outcome with the ABS problems above? I have been advised I have to replace my ABS acutator motor assembly after my ABS light and buzzer came on...

 

in my case was that in one of the wheels the sensor got disconected..

 

I did my lift n broke the wires that run to the wheel speed sensors. That tripped the ABS light for me.

 

did either of you have the buzzer/alarm go off too?

 

same thing just happened to me, with no aural indication. any other ideas?

 

Check each wheel for the wheel speed sensors, and make sure they are connected to the wire harness. Also check that the connection is clean. Then check their alignment to be sure they are strait and nothing like some debris is in the way. Just had to do this on a buick, the awd shut off and the abs light was on. All it was is the sensor was turned a little.

 

I just came on here looking for a solution to the very same issue. Just got my Bilsteins put on today and when driving away from the workshop, noticed the ABS light was on? When I got home from work I took it for a drive and there was also a slight, what felt like, driveline vibration. I was concerned I had the dreaded driveline vibes post lift problem (though only leveled it out with a 1.75" lift). After going into the grocery store I noticed the light was out and once back on the highway the vibes were gone?

Any ideas in this?

 

for the record i ended up on this forumn thread after my abs actuator assembly got fried by a bad jump start back in sept. 2011. after all was said and done i shelled out 3k to replace. the real bummer is after all of that i have come to find that the bad jump left some other kind of electrical short/hiccup which drains my battery ever so slowly. i have tried every kind of certified diagnostic process but am left with disconnecting battery terminals for every 72 hrs its not driven
