    Diff. went out, found another from junked truck, changed out after confirming with dealer and using VINs that it would work. Wrong!

    No speedometer, ABS and brake lights on. Changed out sensor with one from the replaced one - same problems.

    Drove it around for three months and got check engine light, still drove ok.

    Talked with dealer, new model sensor out so bought one, installed it, with battery disconnected, battery reconnected, started it - no check engine light but still yellow ABS and red brake lights and still no working speedometer.

    Anything have to be reset to clear lights and restore speedometer?

It is posible foe the cotroller to cause your problem but rear axle speed sensor can cause it also also if the controller ha lost the pinion factor setting the speedometer will not work and the brake and abs light will come on

Hi, Autozone will scan your vehicle for free 1997 and newer vehicles. Your brake fluid being low will also make the brake light go on. Ihope this helped you out. Good luck, .....MIKE-

2002 dodge 1500 sport speedometer or cruise control

The brake and ABS light both come on when you are receiving no speed signal. Most likely the speed sensor in the top of the rearend is bad.
