Default 91' Dakota brake and antilock lights stay on

My antilock and brake lights stay on after going out after about 10 seconds of the key being turned on. It doesn't have an OBD 1 or 2 connector and I have shorted the pin on the connector on the passenger side kick panel and get code 9. I have replaced the ABS module, speed sensor, master cylinder, metering valve, and bled the brakes. The lights stayed on all the time (never going out at key turn on) until I replaced the ABS module. I have checked the e break switch and the brake light brightens a little whe depressed, indicating it works.
The brakes work fine, I just can't get it inspected with the brake light staying on.
Any suggestions?

I have had to fix this on a 1990 V6 Dakota and a 1991 V8 , get ready its a brake proportioning valve takes up to 6 weeks to get replacement from Dodge. the bad boy is located on the frame almost below driver set area.. Been there and have done that on both trucks the V6 unit cost 165.00 the V8 unit was 185.00

Good luck

BTW the lights on because there is a bipass on the proportioning valve , it also means try using your brakes on a wet street hard you will see the front end lock up on on side or the other. this unit on a 191 is for the anti lock which on 1991 is only 2 wheels not 4 wheel antilock.
