So last week I posted a brake problem, they were acting funny and it sounded like the resevoir was gargling and such. Well now, I start my truck, and the emergency brake and abs light stay on.. I tried messing with the cable and pedal and got nothing. I'm thinking the speed sensor? But I'm not sure exactly where it is on the rear.. Location? And any other thoughts it could be? Help. Thanks

Have you checked the fluid yet?

If the reservoir was gargling I'm with Rubber on this one. First check your fluid level. Second, you may have air in your brake system. It may be time to look for a leak or just get the brakes fully bleed.

Yes, the first thing I did was check the breaks, I bled them this morning.. And reset the codes, but the lights are still on. Any other thoughts?

The only other thing I can think of is you may have a bad ABS sensor on one of your brakes. You may try pulling them out, clean 'em and try reinstalling. They may be dirty or just bad all together.
