The ABS light is on, and truck will make ABS sounds just before stopping with brakes applied. Getting codes C0035, U1064

Can I do some further testing to find the problem? Thanks

Thed speed sensor reading is good I posted the trouble tree for you to follow for the code C0035 hopefully its a active code meaning as soon as you clear it it will reset itself?

Check the ignition b 50 amp fuse in the underhood fuse block, if it is blown it will cause a loss of communication. Also I have seen many bad ignition switches cause the issue you are having.

I used the trouble tree charts, and adjusted the wheel speed sensor. The ABS light was coming on at every stop before, now it has not been on once, also erased the codes. But ABS still engages on a dry road(NO ABS light this time though). Anything I can do?

I would recheck the wheel speed sensor adjustment since that cleared up the light. Your going to have to get a scan tool that can you watch the wheel speeds to see which one is miss reading and causing the abs to kick on. Sounds like the wheel speed sensor is not reading the correct speed but not setting a code just causing the abs to kick on now.

First of all, determine that the abs code is related to your retrofit. It is a good possibility that a recalibration is needed, I am not certain if a ratio change will cause an ABS fault. I would be more apt to think it would cause speedometer, or speed related faults, maybe a check engine light.

MAy be a wheel speed sensor most likely, a harness or the abs unit. IT may be just a contaminated sensor that can be cleaned, which is common n the front sensor.

You need to get the codes read from the computer to start diagnosing.

There is no need for immediate concern. You probably have a bad wheel sensor on one of the wheels.
However, you should have a shop scan the ABS system to see whats wrong, as this is the best way to pinpoint the issue quickly without spending money on parts you do not need.

When the vehicle is started the ABS / Service Brakes lights come on along with a Service Brakes Soon message. The problem is intermittent and does not show up on every start. Shutting the engine off and restarting usually clears it. There are no active DTC codes associated with this problem so it would appear to be a false indication.

NOTE: In Jan 2014 the instrument cluster was replaced for an inoperable speedometer

Thank You.
