ABS Problem

[Captain McGillycutty]

alright this happens every time I haul anything. When I load something into my bed my abs light comes on. It will go off if i turn the truck off but when i get going again it will come back on. I have had it come on when I was carrying a dirt bike and some gear (no more than 300 pounds) and when I have had up to 900 pounds. There is no problem when it comes on but idk why. I was just wondering if anyone has heard of this problem

Thanks

Could be the sensor in the Diff. Mine has come on a few times after I've played under there but a quick wiggle of the wire and or wack on the diff housing with small ballpeen makes it go out. Been since last winter I had any problem. Maybe when you load it something under your truck causes the harness to move...Just a thought!

i second the sensor in the diff.

where can i find the sensor. I have no idea where it is besides the rear end.

Should be on the Top FWD Area of you Diff housing with a small wire harness attached to it. If I remember right if you put your hand on it it feels like a small tin box and you should be able to turn/wiggle it. I'll look in my O3 Manual.

It's right on top of your rear diff like Danny said. Here's a pic of the top of my diff and you can see the sensor right at the top.
