I have a 2013 ram 1500 that I'm having issues with.
A couple weeks ago I replaced the rear brake pads and driver side caliper and then bled the system. The brake pads were down to metal on the driver side and really good on the passenger.
After this work when driving at slow speed and applying the brakes the abs would make a noise under the dash and I could feel it in the pedal. Would stop fine.
Kept driving it for a while and now the traction control light will come on and truck goes into limp mode. Let of the gas and the light goes out and truck may take off again only to repeat. Sometimes the abs light will come on and off as well. Just took it to have scanned and once on the highway and the lights come on and stay on truck will not be in limp mode and no chattering under dash when braking.
The codes read were c0034-62, c1046-92, c0031-2f, c0030-02 and c0037-id. I just changed out the left rear speed sensor and replaced right rear caliper before going for scan. The sensor had metal shavings all over it from the brakes when I pulled it out. I couldn't easily get the rotor off to clean metal shavings internally.
What should be my next move after getting these codes?

figure out what exactly those codes mean and check there. for example it could say LR speed sensor short to ground, RR speed sensor short to positive, speed sensor plausibility something or other et cetera et cetra
it could have nothing to do with the brake you did or it may be related.
you can check to see if the connector is well seated and clicked in place sometimes they are hard to click in

Thought I would give an update on what it was.
While checking the left front speed sensor I looked inside the hole the sensor goes in and noticed a bunch of grime inside. I started cleaning the teeth off and found there were three in a row missing. I replaced the hub assembly and all problems went away.

That's a ray of hope to those of us with unresolved issues. Great job!
