Default 4WD Question...

Just wondering if anyone knows anything about this problem I got???

Yesterday my (ABS) light and (BRAKE) light came on steady, not flashing... Now for some strange reason the truck won't engage into 4WD LOCK. 4WD LOCK icon on instrument panel just flashes, won't change to steady on!

Are these two things cause by one problem or is it 2 seperate problems?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

Hey ARMOUR! You still doing the big hauls? As for the two problems they may be related to wiring that has been shorted out or disconnected, due to the roads, with all the sanding and de-icing you may have gotten the connecions "wet". Try crawling under the rear end and check the top of the pumpkin for the ABS/speed sensor connection, it may have come apart or been broken by road debris. Had same thing "ABS" found connector was destroyed by gravel replaced with new harness. Could be same thing with 4X4 indicator switch.
By the way got me a new job, same area $150/day more and they pay for me fuel!!

Stupid question, but i'm assuming that you checked your brake fluid levels right?
