I was driving home after doing some running around out of town today, and all of a sudden the ABS light came on. Hit the brakes gradually and the brakes were still functioning as normal, pedal didn't go flat to the floor.
Pulled into a roadside park to look the truck over. Checked the master cylinder, it was full. Checked the insides of all 4 wheels for any leaking brake fluid, they were bone dry. I shut the truck off after pulling in to hopefully reset the light, started the truck after maybe 3 minutes and the light finally shut off, and continued on driving. And wouldn't you know it, after a minute the ba$tard lit up again...
As far as I am concerned, if it still drives and stops as normal, I ain't going to worry (only complaint will be that distracting light). But should I worry in the long run is my biggest question.
