My ABS light is on and my Trac light is off. Could it be a wheel bearing? Or just unplugged? Where would the plug be, so that I can check it? Thanks!
Response:
Probably a wheel bearing as the sensors are usually integrated in them.... if the sensor is not in the bearing it will be behind the wheel knuckle usually held in by 1 screw... check the wiring leading to the sensor/bearing and looking for any signs of damage, both front wheels(if I remember correctly they are integrated with the bearings in front and sensors in the rear)
I do know that on newer cars if your brakes get to warn it can trigger the brake light or abs light or both

Anti-lock brake problem
Thank you!
Response:
1) my 07 f550 does the same thing and ford dont know why but has been doing this for 170000 miles with no other problems
2) Number one cause of this issue is a failing Speed sensor. The speed sensors are located inside the front hub bearing assemblies. This means you have to replace the entire hub bearing......
Or, you can just remove the ABS fuse or Relay to deactivate the ABS system. The ABS will no longer work which means it will no longer give you a problem when it is dry out. Just won't work in the wet, icy roads either. Once you save up the money, you may want to have the ABS system fixed.

ABS Light is on and I don't want to spend anymore money to fix it
Answer:
Yes and No. This truck does not have bulbs, it is equipped with LED lights. But you can take the dash apart and remove the circuit board from the gauge cluster and clip one leg of the LED and it will no longer light up. I do not recommend clipping both legs in case you want to reconnect it later.
