Default ABS codes
1998 f-150 v8,auto. Rear ABS only. I was able to pull the ABS codes. It flashed 4 times. Can someone tell me what this problem might be? Thanks!

From my experience, code 4 is a bad or plugged RABS valve.

White89gt is on spiot on.

Yep, Code 4: RABS valve located under master cylinder. Head for your local yard or Pick/n/Pay. Mine was $35 and solved the issue.

They are not cheap. But here is a new one. Before ordering one, you need to check the number on your old one to make sure it is correct. It is stamped into the housing.
