Rear axle swap now ABS and brake light on??

[bogusdill]

i have a 2005 2wd XLT ranger that i wanted to put a locker in but they dont make a selectable for the 7.5 rearend so i swapped it with an 8.8 and got an Auburn Elocker and everything works great! i also replaced all the brake hardware because the new 8.8 axle had been out in the weather so they were rusted. anyway like i said everything works great, the locker is awesome, the brakes are nice but the ABS and emergency brake light are coming on. they come on everytime i drive the truck about 5 mins then go back off. i replaced the tone ring sensor with the one from the old axle and it still is coming on. is there somthing else that could be causing this light issue? i want to get it fixed ASAP cause i live in snow country and i dont think my ABS is working with that light on so any advice would be great! thanks guys

did the tone ring on the ring gear carrier look good? i only ask because i've seen then with some of the teeth broken off them causing an inaccurate reading from the sensor and setting of the abs light.

Have you reset the computer since changing out the tone ring?

the tone ring looked good to me, its an older axle but it seems to be in good shape. no i didnt reset the computer yet. it goes off whenever i shut off the engine then the light will come back on once i drive it for a short distance. someone mentioned that the locker mite have pushed the ring over and now its not lined up so im gona look down the hole for the sensor to see if its centered tommorow, if it is then im lost.. idk what to do. thanks for your help

just an update, i finally took the tone ring out and replaced it, turns out there was a very small nick in one of the teeth. once i swapped it i was home free and loving the 8.8 rearend with a locker! booyah! thanks guys
