Reshma Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 (edited) I think if you pull the drivers seat you can check codes without a cod reader, I read it somewhere. Allow me to utilize the search bar that you did not. EDIT: FOUND IT only took me about 5 min. How to check codes No code reader needed Edited December 5, 2011 by PathfinderIII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 If your abs and brake lights are on, check your brake fluid, could be low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Most code readers are OBDII readers. The WD21 uses OBDI You can't use an OBDII reader with those trucks. For your brake/ABS light issue, chances are you've got air in the system somewhere. I had that happen once when I had replaced a caliper on my old WD21. I had to gravity bleed the entire system, from furthest from the master, to closest, in order to remove the air, and clear the lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewebster Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 There are instructions in the FSM for reading the ABS codes. They are separate from the engine codes. I think you have to ground a pin on a wiring harness somewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
