    When I started my truck yesterday leaving work, the Emergency brake light, ABS light, and Traction Control light all came on and won't go off. No check engine light came on. I disconnected my battery that evening for about an hour trying to reset the computer but that didn't work. I drive like a grandpa and haven't done anything out of the ordinary.

    Anyone have any idea what is going on? Truck is driving like normal.

    Are you able to scan for codes? Perhaps there is a fault in the abs system.

    I can't but have thought about taking it to my local Auto Zone and have them scan it. Didn't know if NOT having a check engine light would make a difference.

    Clean the battery terminals and while you’re at auto zone scanning for codes have them test the battery. A weak battery or corrosion at the terminals can cause all sorts of problems for these trucks

    It is possible to have an abs or other system fault without engine light I'm pretty sure. I'd definitely get the truck scanned.

    Check the abs sensors at each wheel for damage.

    Yup. Pulling codes and checking sensors is the way to go now. Thank you all for the help!

    If for some reason your Can Bus network doesnt work, please post back. When I had those same lights come on, it shorted my Can Bus network and I couldnt pull codes. Hopefully, that won't be an issue for you.

    Here's what my reader says for mine, Haven't got a chance to check the sensors yet. After sitting a while or over night, then I release the emergency brake it will go off also right after starting to
    drive the other 2 will go away

    This figures but on my way to my mechanic, the lights went off. Truck never acted different so I maybe it just threw up a code and took a week to clear itself? They said if it does it again to bring it by and they'll check it out. SMH
