Added a new ranger to the family, have a question about a issue
Hi, so when I joined this site I had a 87 i bought and fixed up but had to sell it when the motor died. I had missed my truck so much and wanted to buy another one but couldn't find a good one for a good price or without it being a basket case, until last week i wasn't even looking for one but I bought another one and I love it even more than my 87. The new one is a 92 gold xlt super cab 2wd with the 2.3 8 spark plug engine, 5spd. I Saved this truck from certain death as it was totaled in a small fender bender because the fender and bumper were to cost more to fix than the truck was worth to the insurance company. anyways new bumper, pulled out the dented lower grille,and fixed the fender this truck is perfect. However the issue im having is every once in awhile the e-brake light and the rear anti lock light both light up and stay on during the duration of the drive. these lights go off when I turn truck off and sometimes don't turn back on but every now and then they come on? what could be casuing this issue?

Attempted to slow down slightly before a corner, abs went ape **** and it wouldnt accept anything I was doing to the brake pedal. thus the road turned, i did not. straight into the ditch i went.
My ranger with no abs I've been driving for 10 years if far worse weather and never had a single issue.

1. I never said it locked up
2. Considering I've never had an accident, ticket, or any other issues besides that one time I'd say I'm a pretty good driver.
3. ABS is not the whirlwind of awesomeness that you seem to think it was. New ABS may be better but older versions of ABS will kick in in the slightest bit of slipping and it will cause problems.
