Anyone know where I can take it to have the code scanned? I took it to Advanced and they said they didn't have the correct tool to scan ABS codes?

Any guesses?

You think so?

I'll have to check. I just had the upper and lower ball joints do
ne and a front end alignment and no one said anything regarding a bad wheel bearing.

Note: the abs light was on before all the work I had done.

Thanks

Yes... It's 99.9% the commmon problem for cars... A bad ball joint will cause a bearing to wear out for the load it puts on the bearings..
 
I'm not sure where you're located, but if you want to bring it out to Ypsilanti I can pull the code for you. A few of the more common things I see on the F-series chassis are the rear differential speed sensor, and the hydraulic control unit pump motor circuit. On the pump motor there are 2 wires running eternally into the abs module, and one usually corrodes and breaks causing an open in the circuit. Most of the time the wire can be resoldered to the terminal on the motor instead of having to spend $1200 on a whole HCU.
 
what are you smoking? I'm a frontend tech. Sounds like you just have a bad sender. Do you have a volt meter? If so you check them yourself.

Sorry guys for the delay I haven't been on lately. I live in South Carolina so a little bit too far for your generous offers. I figured I would ask because most chain places are the same in regards to what equipment they may have. I didn't want to have to take it to the dealer and pay $50+ to find out what is wrong.
