i searched and try every thing that didn't cost money because i'm more sure how to fix it

what ive done

check brake fuild..full
check fuse in dash..good
check fuse under hood.. i don't have one
cleaned the..RWAL sensor (on the rear axle) ***edit,ABS Wheel Speed Sensor****
check the brake switch..looked ok
cleaned sum sensor under the master

also i disconected the battery and light went away for 5sec then was back on.(when started up)

after cleaning the RWAL sensor and having the battery disconected the light didn't come back on for about 20 sec and i was driving.

does everybody have ideas what to do???

i can't find the RWAL on parts stores web sites is it called sum thing esle??

all input is good input..thanks

 

is your speedo working correctly and consistently, because if it is then your rwal hasnt given out on you yet and you have to find the problem somewhere else.

 

my speedo is working good.... maybe i'm wrong thinking rwal or calling that. i also i unplug it and drove up the drive way and the speedo still worked. i think my speed senor is in my trail the of trans

maybe the sensor on the axle is called sum thing else

my truck is a 95 with ob1 and i don't have a scaner for ob1 just for ob2

 

Ive always called the sensor on top of the rear differential the "speed sensor", but I'm not sure on the technical term. If that goes bad the ABS light will come on, but your speedo wont work either. Maybe its on its way out? Sorry, not much of a help, but good luck anyhow.

 

I think it can allso mean a sensor on the wheel bearing

 

Interesting, you must be right though if it still worked even after you disconnected it...maybe just get one from another dodge for the time being, like a junkyard dodge just to test it... or borrow one from a friend who has the same truck just to see if the abs and brake light comes on... if it does still then it probably has something to do with fluids or air in the brake lines somewhere

 

True, but only if he has front wheel ABS.

 

good ideal....... sorry that your having truck problem to

i only have rear ABS

this one really got me..... thanks for all the reply so far

it's the weekend so the forum will probably be a little slow with people being out and about

hopefully someone will know sum thing

 

Found a Vehicle Speed Sensor (as they call it) on Rockauto in case you still couldnt find one.

That seems like a decent deal. I think I paid about $40 or so from Autozone a while back (but cant really remember).

 

thanks for looking i think the speed senor is ok beecause of speedo working?

here is the pic of what i cleaned.... what i thought was a RWAL was a ABS Wheel Speed Sensor or ABS Differential Speed Sensor

ABS Differential Speed Sensor and ABS Wheel Speed Sensor look the same
