    Hey All, the better half took in the truck today while I was at work to Firestone to get it aligned and she told me after it was done the ABS light is on and they “ran the code” and it said it will go away after a “few hours” (As if trucks tell time)

    anyone know what could be the issue or will it actually go away after driving it a bit?

    EDIT: Traction control is also on

    Sounds like they fucked up a sensor to me. That's just a wild guess. Maybe wait the couple of hours, although I have no idea how they made that assumption.

    Either a zero point calibration or a sensor. Scan it and see if the DTC points to a wheel speed sensor or the steering angle sensor. If it's the steering sensor it just needs the zero point calibration done.
