Default ABS and E-Brake Light?

Well, My ABS and Brake light are constantly stuck on. They don't flicker or anything just off all the time, does anyone know were the wiring is for this/ Ground Cables. I did work on the timing chain and these lights stay on.

Usually those lights mean that your rear wheel speed sensor is bad. You can check the wiring on connector 1 at the CAB, the 2001 manual shows it's wire's 1(RD/VT) and 8(WT/VT). If those are ok then I'd be looking at the sensor in the rear axle.

What you should do is ck your fuses and if they are okay with a test lite, then ck for codes and go from there.

K I don't think any of the fuses are bad as I recently checked them but I will have a look.

How do u find this in the manual? I can't find it.
It's under wiring, then under rear wheel anti-lock brakes, pg. 8W-34-3.
