Does your speedo work right? If so, replace the speed sensor in the rear differential. Its right up on top. Easy to find.

I can't believe some one actually went through the trouble of putting tape over the light, instead of replacing the sensor in 5 minutes. LOL

Is your brake light on too? Or are we talking about the air bag light?

Someone colored over mine with black marker...... (on the van.) For some reason, all the sensor lines have been cut. Not broken. Cut. ALL of them. Not sure what someone was thinkin' there. (or, if they were thinking at all.)

Let's see, how can I get that light to turn off? Oh, I know, a pair of wire snips will do the trick. LOL


On a side note, If the OP just bought the truck, some how I can't help to think, that installing a CD player is on top of the list of things to do.

When we start telling him the things that need checking, he'll want the beer for sure.
