Brakes problem
2005 Ford F150 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

When I brake, the left rear wheel locks up. Yellow Anti Lock Brake Light remains on on the dash. Have pulled the wheel and drum and all is good in there. Carl

AFTER REPLACING FRONTDISCS AND PADS AND RIGHT CALIPER, BRAKES FEEL STRANGE AT FIRST SCRATCHING AND VIBRATING, THEN IT GOES AWAY, BUT THE ABS LIGHT IS GOING ON

Chances are you bumped or damaged the ABS sensor on one of the wheels. Check the wiring to them and their condition. Also, make sure the rear backing plate behind the rotor isn't bent or rusted and touching the rotor.

Let me know what you find.

Electrical problem

when abs light comes on the truck also goes into engine failsafe mode. I had the rearend replaced and started having this problem. Is there a sensor that may cause it to do this on the rear end?

There is a sensor at each wheel. If the light is on, have the computer scanned at a nationally recognized parts store. Most will do it for free. Then you'll know what wheel to check first or where the problem is coming from. Chances are they pinched a wire or loostened a connection to one ot the sensors at the wheels that is making contact some times and not others.

Let me know what you find.

I just replaced the rt front wheel bear assy. With ABS censer. The only previous problem was the wheel bearing. Now the ABS light comes and stays on. It did not before. I have already disconnected battery to try and reset light. It still returns. Is there any test to see if that new ABS censer is defective?

Check for codes
need to use a scanner tool and NOT an OBDII reader
or use an ohm meter and check for continuity at the sensor

my breaks seem fine, yet the ABS light keeps coming on, but not all the time.
How can I repair this?

Chances are there is a bad connection or sensor. What you need to do is actually check the plugs at each wheel to make sure they are not corroded or damaged. If they look good, when the light is on, you need to have the computer scanned to identify where the problem is coming from.

Check that and let me know what you find.
