The regular brake warning light is for the parking brake being applied or the brake fluid is low. You would need to get the abs system scanned for trouble codes to proceed.

ABS diagnostics requires a scan tool (Chrysler DRB II, DRB III or aftermarket equivalent). the plug is located near the brake pedal. this is the only alternative to get the ABS light off.

SOURCE: on my 2002 DODGE DURANGO ABS and Brake

I have a 2002 I had to take the sensor out of the rear end. It is located on top. remove the screw and it should pop out. Be carefull. I had to clean it off and re-install. After that it went off this is something to try.

SOURCE: 1999 Dodge Durango. Brake Light and the ABS Light

If you backup lights are not working as well, I would say check the fuse for the backup lights, if the fuse is good, see if you are getting power to that fuse. We had this problem and after weeks of searching and changing sensors, we found the backup light fuse was good, but not getting power. Ran a wire from that fuse to the cig. lighter fuse and all woprksf great.

The brake and abs light come on if a problem is detected. When the abs light is on the abs is NOT working. You need to pull the codes from the ecm to detect the problem

How do you fix the abs brakes in a 98 dodge durango?

Firast you need to have the ABS control module scanned for the fault code that is set when the light is on, then work from that fault code.

How many speed sensors does a 1998 dodhe durango 5.2 4x4 have??

i have a 98 durango 5.9 4x4 ive issues with the abs and brake light popping up off and on it is now happening more frequently especially when its raining, recently i replaced my abs module, calipers,pads, brake hoses and rotors the light discontinued popping up for about a week or so but its at it again and doesnt want to go away. before i replaced rotors brakes etc. i had an issue with my front passenger wheel rolling a little bit of white smoke out it heated up the rotors and everything else pretty good i think it may have caused the abs wheel speed sensor to start malifunctioning, i would appreciate any opinions or in put if possible

I HAVE A 98 DURANGO AND EVERY TIME I TURN RIGHT AN APPLEY BRAKES THE ABS KICKS IN.

the abs does work like that at all times apply the brakes. If you are referring to a harsh throbbing or pulsating feel upon applying the brakes the abs module needs to be looked at
