Drum or disk rear brakes? Have you checked the brakes to see if they a o.k.? Is the ebrake stuck and holding the brake on? The abs will not keep a wheel from turning. Since ABS stands for ANTI-LOCK Brake System it would not make sense for the system to "lock" up the brakes since it is designed to keep the brakes from locking up. Your problem is mechanical or hydraulic. A quick inspection of the brake components should reveal the problem.

SOURCE: rear wheel

does the van shake or vibrate? does the van have tires on it ?start by switching the left rear with the right rear test drive and listen for soun if no sound then the tire has a bad steel belt replace tire if the sound is still present. jack up van and spin tire if no sound is heard replace wheel bearing and if there is still a sound look into brake drum for possible springs or clips that may have fallen into drum causing noise but i would say its more than likely the rear wheel bearing to change that u must buy a new bearing and follow instructions on replacing good

Look for contacts at door jamb & door, that mate when closed.( usually round metal piece) Take a piece of fine steel wool & scrub them and see if that cures it.

SOURCE: abs light came on, then after 50-60 miles it went

it is not a "pre warning light", the fact the light went out just means whatever the fault was has corrected itself, this is common on ABS systems, most times it is a dirty wheel speed sensor at one of the 4 wheels.

I was told the right rear and center differential went out on my 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan ES AWD. Is this an expensive and difficult thing to repair?

Yes to both. It depends on your financial condition on whether you should get a newer vehicle or not. If you can afford it , buy another vehicle. The vehicle is old and other repairs are inevitable.

Abs light rear wheel locking

I would say it is more likely that your wheel bearing hub locked up and caused the light to come on. You could have a severe brake fault too. Either one you should have had some noises or other indicators of the problem. Good luck, don't drive the vehicle until you get to a garage.

98 dodge caravan rear wheel locked up

That would likely be caused by the ABS brake hydraulic control unit leaking pressure to the rear brake caliper, not the proporting valve..

Dodge Grand Carivan 1997, directional problems,asbs light, heat

ENSURE THE AIR PRESSURE IN ALL 4 TIRES ARE THE SAME. CHRYSLER UNWITTINGLY HAS A TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor System) by having an ABS light.
When 1 tire turns slower (or faster) than the other 3, the ABS lamp illuminates when it thinks the wheels aren't turning the same speed, (they aren't). When properly inflated, (or all 4 at least at the same pressure, the ABS Lamp will go out soon, (not immediately). Maybe on the next drive cycle.
