Default ABS light

Hey Guys, I bought a '08 F150 a couple of months ago. I recently drove it for about fifty miles on the interstate and noticed the ABS light came on. I pulled over switched the truck off and and back on and it was off. Came back on a few miles later. Never had a problem around town on short trips. Any ideas?

have the abs code read and replace whichever sensor it tells you is bad.. there is one on each front wheel and a rear speed sensor.. you may want to double check all the connections first..

Also get under there and clean everything off. Caked-up dirt can cause all sorts of stupid readings.
