Abs light and brake light started coming on and staying on. I also have noticed that the speedometer while in idle is jumping all over the place. I checked the pads and they are good. I recently had a trailer brake installed. Thinking there may be a short I redid all the terminations. No good either.Any ideas. I would hate to have to buy another abs module.

Need to hook up a scan tool to read the codes,it will tell you what is making the lite come on. Could be the trailer brakes causing this.

How do I identify the cause of an ABS Fault?

First thought is that if you have a judder from the brakes you may have a warped front disc. The ABS system sensor may be picking this judder up and converting it to a fault.
A warped disc would spin and catch then spin and catch again rather like the rapid on/off braking that ABS does. This 'could' be the judder you feel and should be especially noticeable when braking and barely noticeable when driving with the brakes completely off.

Abs light brake light on not shifting

look under the truck at the ****** and check the wiring to the sensors if good may be a bad sensor,also check the wiring and connections to the abs wheel sensors [ located from frame to the hub behind the rotors ] the abs also acts as speed sensor if problem was with an abs sensor at the[ hub] wheel usually set the brake system to normal power brakes [if u hit brakes hard will lock up or skid wheels] with the abs light coming on if the speed sensor at ****** malfunction can and usually causes shift problems

My 93 chevy s10 blazer speedometer is no working is electronic i test the plug on the speed sensor and i do not get any power

not a good idea to do a voltage test on a computer component, it can result in damage to the ECM.
if only the speedometer is not working and the other gauges do work, the first place to start is the speed sensor, it is the most common issues with inoperative speedometers.

Speedometer intermittent and ABS/Brake light stays on
