WyKi Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Hey guys how do I turn them off or reset the system? I've disconnected the plugs under the truck of the ABS system and have disc. the baterry aswell...they stay lit up when I reconnect everything.... The truck brakes fine, And the handbrake light is noticable when you pull it up as it shines more when the hand brake is up and dims down a little when down. Now how do I reset the system to turn them off? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Is your brake fluid level between MIN and MAX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Are any other lights on as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devonianwalk Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Is your brake fluid level between MIN and MAX? My thoughts exactly. Your fluid level could be low or the "plunger" is stuck inside the reservoir? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkorahil Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) , And the handbrake light is noticable when you pull it up as it shines more when the hand brake is up and dims down a little when down. Now how do I reset the system to turn them off? Thanks. this statement here is a classic sign of the handbrake switch being bad/out of adjustment! this switch is located on teh side of the base of the pull handle. Pull your center console to access it. Secondary and tertiary possibilities would be 1) the parking brake out of adjustment in the rear or the rear pads/shoes are worn too far down. 2) the parking brake calbe is worn/stretched adn needs replacement. Either of those though the parking brake would not work well if at all.

ahardb0dy Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Make sure the hand brake lever is actually down all the way, press the button on it and see if it goes down any further. I would check as Rob said also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Mine does this too, but it isn't the handbrake sensor, and it also gets slightly brighter when you press the actual brakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyKi Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) The Brake fluid is full i pushed the inside bobber down and it floats back up..And the hand brake switch is good. the cable is working great as I pull it and it only clicks 3-4 times and it locks up and no scoring sounds when I brake.. I disconn. the cable plug on the master cyl. up front and conn. again , and did the same under the trucks RHD side . Still the same....

ahardb0dy Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 it may still be the fluid level sensor, though it moves freely doesn't mean it's working. Don't see anything in the FSm specifically for checking the sensor. Did you check the plug for any corrosion? Try cleaning the contacts or scraping them maybe?
