Hey everyone! Been driving my 99 V10 4x4 for a while now and I'm starting to tend to some of its issues. Just got done changing the ball joints, rotors and axle u-joints a few hours ago.
Question 1: Ever since I've had it, the "Brake" warning light has been on. ABS light is not on. All of the threads I've found only cover when both lights are on, so I don't know where to start.
My question is, where should I start looking and what should I look for? Not sure what could cause it other than maybe air in the lines.
Question 2: My temp gauge stays on or just above the 130 degree mark all the time. I'm wondering if maybe my sender or gauge is bad. If the sender is bad, I suppose it would be giving false information to the computer, which in turn would cause a rich condition. I don't have a CEL, and the truck runs great, but gets worse mileage than I think it should (6 MPG). Thought maybe this could contribute to the issue. Any advice?
Thanks everyone!
