ABS and Brake light stay on, but no brake problems?
Most of the time when I start up my ABS and Brake light come on and stay on. I haven't driven it far like that to know if it will eventually go off. Usually if I turn it off and back on they go away the second time. But I'm not having any brake problems that I am noticing. It's decently warm here in GA right now so no frosting over like I read in some of the old threads and My pops and I bled the brake lines last time we replaced the brakes (a few months ago) so I don't think that's it (We could have goofed)
Could it be just a dirty or failing sensor somewhere?

Mine would go off occasionally as well and the fuse was completely missing...
In all cases, I would still check the simple solution first. It only makes sense to eliminate the simple fix first.
Part of the reason I say it on these ABS/Brake light threads is that the majority of the threads do not mention the fuse. Most people suggest to clean and replace the RWSS and never mention the fuse. In my case, I replaced the sensor after researching old threads and it did not fix the problem. After it did not fix it, I dug further and I finally came upon one thread that mentioned the fuse and it fixed the problem. Many people won't ask the questions, they dig up answers from old threads, that is what I do. I put out the information for the current person and for the person who will use the thread to find their answer later.

I try to search for my questions before I ask them. The ones I found on this weren't specific enough to my question for me.
My truck is pretty bug free so far (besides the gas gauge) So it confused me a bit. I checked the fuse It was number 12 for me. It was fine. So per y'alls suggestion I crawled under the truck in search of the RWSS connection. Found it and cleaned it with some contact cleaner. Of the three times I started the truck after that, the lights all went out. Maybe that was all it needed. (I hope) Thanks for your help , I'll definitely let you know if it wasn't it.
