Why does my truck slide when applying brakes at even a slow speed? Vehicle has new tires.

Yes on clean and dry pavement and feels like mostly in rear wheels because it seems to fishtail somewhat.

I was told it was not pumping brake fluid to one of the rear brakes. And yes to your previous question, the anti-lock brake warning light has been on for almost a year but was told not to worry about it.
