Been working on my 96 Ranger 2.3L 5mt rwd. It has rear only abs. Not 4 wheel abs like newer models. I've just finished doing maintenance of following and everything is working great except now the ABS light is on. I've owned the truck since 2003 and it's never come on before so I don't know if it's just coincidence or if I screwed something up. Maintenance just completed:
1. removed & replaced exhaust manifold to repair rusted off front flange bolt.
2. new plugs on pass side.
3. removed egr pipe, intake manifold, & fuel rail.
4. new plugs on drivers side.
5. new set of 4 pin injectors (upgrade from oe).
I put everything back together, reconnected all the connectors and vacuum lines that I know of and it's running great, no check engine lights, except that now the ABS light is on? I've looked all over and don't see anything I forgot to reconnect. This is the cheap rear wheel only ABS system, not the more modern 4 wheel ABS. I connected an obd2 code reader and there are no codes set. Reset it anyway, but makes no difference. When I first start engine the abs light is off, but only for about 1-2 seconds and then it goes on and stays on.
Thanks for you help
