Default Brake problem

Everytime I hit the brakes for my first couple times the brake is very spongey and make a weird noise, the truck also starts to pull to the right. After about 3-4 brakes the abs light turns on and everything is fine. I have checked pads, rotors and capillars and all seem fine. I also bleed the brakeline and fluid comes out. Can anyone help me out?

after the ABS light comes up, that means you don't ve the abs system anymore. thats why it works perfect after the ABS light. it could be a wheel sensors or ABS module...

you said, after ABS light comes up, it breaks normal and it wouldn't pull to the right when you break... get the abs module code reader plug to the OBD port and see what it is gonna say...i would say it could be a left side wheel/abs sensor.
