You don't install parts in an attempt to fix,
you use the codes & factory diagnostic manuals

SOURCE: ABS Light / Sensor on 1996 Ford Explorer

the rear one is a single sensor and is located in the top of the rear differential , unplug it and take the retaining bolt out and it pops straight up out of the differential. the front has 1 for each wheel,and is located on the backside of the wheel hub. take the tire off and look on back side of hub it should be the only sensor thare and is anchored with one bolt then just fallow the wire to its disconnect point. this vehicle is known to have problems with the rear sensor so i would replace it first and see if this fixes the problem

SOURCE: abs light wont go out

When u power up the vehicle ABS does a self test(light stays on a few seconds then cuts off) and if it see's a problem will shut off and illuminate the ABS lamp. It will also do a second test on iself when you reach a speed of around 12-15 mph,it will run the pump for a few seconds to check pressure and look at the speed sensors,if it see a problem here it will again shut down and illuminate the ABS light.
Now if the red brake lamp is on then it will shut down because it thinks you have a hydraulic concern and will not try and run ABS if this is the case.
If red brake lamp is on most likely if you have good brakes it is a problem with the float sensor in the master cylinder reservior,maybe its bad or just stuck,or just low on fluid.

SOURCE: the abs light on the dash stays on

Hello there
i will explain this in the best manner that i can
it may take a couple of post but i will get it all ok
There are many things that can cause your ABS light to come on. Some are serious, so you should never just ignore the light. But there are times when the light comes on and can be met with a simple solution. For instance, a dirty ABS wheel sensor can cause the system to trigger the ABS light during self evaluation. You'll be shocked when you see how much road gunk can accumulate on this very important sensor. Even if your ABS light hasn't made an appearance, it's a good idea to clean the sensor. A good time to do it would be during brake pad replacement when you have the wheels off anyway.
What You'll Need:

  • Ratchet wrench and sockets
  • Ratchet extension
  • Jack
  • Jack stands
  • A strong rag
Begin by loosening your wheel lugs, then jack the front of the car up and rest it securely on jack stands. With the car safe, remove the wheel lugs and take the front wheels off. With the wheel off, turn the steering wheel all the way in, opposite the side your working on. For example if your working on the passenger side, turn the wheel all the way toward the drivers side.
Locate the ABS wheel sensor. Remove the bolts that attach it to the rest of the suspension. You may also need to remove a few bolts to pull the sensor away from the vehicle for cleaning. Follow the line to see if there are more bolts. Remember not to force it or pull too hard. Then along the line theres another two 10mm bolts, that need to be removed, just follow the abs sensor line to get at them. With the sensor free, take your rag and wipe the sensor until its clean. I prefer not to use any chemicals on the sensor to avoid potential problems. If you need to, use mild soapy solution and rinse well. Reinstall the sensor in the same manner it was removed.

'99 f150 abs light on and pedal pulsates

Hi,
You may have a bad/broken tone ring sensor on either the front or rear wheels.

You'll need to have this checked @ the dealer as the ABS system usually require FORD specific equipment to test.

I have a friend who has a 2004 ford f150. The check engine light and abs light is on and the truck jolts like is trying to shift gears a steady speed. What might be the problem?

Take it to Autozone, Advance, or Oreilys for a FREE scan. Since a problem light is on, the computer will tell you what part is bad.

The ABS can have a problem reading the RPM of each wheel if there is dirt or debris blocking a sensor. Common problems are the rear Emergency brake shoes coming apart within the drum portion of the rear rotor. The rear of the truck has 2 braking systems, an Emergency brake and a service brake.

The ABS portion of your problem can also be scanned with a better scanner having more functions. The "Check engine" light is on a separate system and most minimum priced scanners will work with it. Since the ABS is automatically operating, a malfunction can result in a jolt as the individual brakes are wrongly applied.

The ABS will apply the brakes to the fastest spinning wheel and this will result in a drivetrain jolt.

1992 ford f150 speedometer quit working and ABS light is on, also odometer is not working

where the speedometer cable goes into the transmission under the car, when removed from the trans there is a small gear that gets worn out over time.. that little gear or the entire speedometer cable needs to be replaced. An easy and inexpensive fix. I believe the ABS light is on because the computer needs the speed of the car to make its calculations for braking. As long as the speedometer is not working, it cannot do that. So after the speedometer cable issue is fixed, that issue should be fixed as well.

My rear end chatters around corners and if im pulling a trailer my abs light and the wrench shaped light will come on in my 2004 f150 fx4 supercrew

If you have a locking rear diff,it could be the clutches on the side gears or lack of fluid and special additive. Sounds like the wheel speed is off enough on corner,to set the ABS light,when it chatters. Don't over look parking brake and rear caliper issues.

92 f150 XLT Left front brake drags,ABS & brk lght stays on

The ABS is only a sensor and won't effect the brakeing even if the light is on. the only thing I can think to check is the steel brake line that connects to the rubber line. May be it's pinched and isn't letting the pressure off when you let off the brakes.

We changed the brakes, routers and bearings on my 1997 Ford F150. The next time we drove it the brakes didn?t work well at all. At these points a good friend noticed we need to change the calipers, which...

On the Fords, the most likely problem is the rear ABS sensor in the rear end. With out paying the $75 to be sure though it is just an educated guess.
