Default 09 Grand Caravan ABS problem

Hi guys..
Here is a puzzler for uou guys.
I have a 2009 Grand Caravan and it recently started lighting up BRAKE, ABS.
I pulled the codes and none showed up.
Checked the brake fluid level and it was ok.
Brake pads and rotors were replaced this summer.
Anyone else had this problem?

ABS sensors have to be read with a specific code reader. It is probably a sensor. Mine has been on for years.

If you can get a hold of one, or know someone who has one, a scanner that can read ABS live stream data would be useful. Hook it up and go for a drive and see what the wheel speed is at each tire. If one (or more) ABS sensor is not getting a correct reading, it will show up as one of the wheel speeds.

I've also seen those two lights go on if one of the parking brakes is stuck (you'll smell the burning brake pads). ABS can't engage if a brake caliper in one of the corners is applied, hence, the (parking) Brake light and ABS light.

Good luck.
