ABS light
Hey whats up everyone! I did a brake job not too long about on my ranger and maybe about 2 weeks after my ABS/TCS light popped up. It stays on until I park, shut the truck down and do what I need to do. A few minutes later or next day the light stays on, then after a few feet of driving it turn off. THEN about a few miles later it'll pop up or stay off for a few hours. Any ideas what it could be? I pulled the code for the right side ABS sensor. I didn't touch the sensor when I did the brake job.

Update: I finally had time after the rotor/pad replacement to get in there and check the front ABS sensors that were giving me a headache. I realized I didn't hit the ABS rings on the rotors with brake cleaner prior to install. I jacked up the truck, located a decent sized opening on the back of spindle exposing the ring. I hit it with brake cleaner and removed the sensor while I was there. I cleaned the sensor with brake cleaner as well and reinstalled. I just came back from a 20-30 minute test drive and everything seems to be ok. ABS/TCS light are NOT on. Hopefully it stays this way.
