I am having the same issue. My abs and brake light came on. My speedo and heat went out. Not sure wht I is either. My engine light is bringing ujp the p0500 code which is the speed sensor. Replaced both the rear diff and the tranny sensors. Reset and still no fix. I also checked my wires visibly ad found nothing wrong. What did the stealership say the second time and is your heat and speedo out as well? I haven't been there yet but think I should go c wht they can find.

so everything i am hearing is that it is the abs module. read a thread on another site where a guy was speaking with an actual dodge mechaninc. he had all the same problems, did all the same fixes we both have, including draining and refilling his rear diff and no change. mechanic said it is in the abs module. my neighbor said he had a 2002 volvo that the same thing happened too. he replaced his sensors and no change. his mechanic told him it would b like 2000 to replace the module. he declined, came home and removed the module. after inspecting it with a magnifying glass he noticed hair line cracks around the solder points. once he restored them he said the issue was fixed and never came back. this is what i will be doing tomorrow. another thing i found is that your actual fuse box can be corroded underneath causing these issues. hope this helps and let me know what you find out on the second please.

I had the same problem for a year. Brake light and abs light would randomly come and go. I replaced my rear sensor but the problem was still there. Finally tired of all the warning dings I waited till the lights came on and hooked up my superchip 3815 and pulled 2 dtc codes c1008 & c1009. Brake fluid low & high resistance. Apparently the master cylinder reservoir has a sensor that goes bad. I replaced the reservoir for about 60 bucks from the dealership and the problem has finally been solved. It took a while of driving around with my 3815 for the lights to come and finally pull a code but it was worth it. Hope this helps I know how annoying it can be.
