    Hey everyone hopefully somebody has an answer.
    My 2010 Toyota tundra is having issues… Took it out in severe mud today and after around 10 km both four-wheel-drive high and four-wheel-drive low lights started to flash, along with the ABS light coming. A friend of mine with a Tundra said that he had something similar happen with his and it was the wheel speed sensor.
    four-wheel-drive still seems to function, but I haven’t had it out at highway speeds yet.
    I have it scheduled in with my mechanic on Thursday, but it’s 2 1/2 hours to the nearest town.

    Check the wheel speed sensors and wires connected to them to see if there's anything obviously broken or ripped off. A malfunction with one or more of those sensors is what it sounds like to me.

    Yea probably the wiring or the sensor got snagged and made it freak out. I had the exact same thing happen to me a few days ago and waiting on the harness from RockAuto for $90. If there's an auto parts store nearby you could scan it, if the scanner can read ABS fault codes it'll tell you exactly what's wrong and which sensor is messed up.

    Hey thanks guys much appreciated. I crawled under after spending three hours washing it and found the right rear wheel speed sensor had one wire torn off. I could see solder from a previous repair, so I just crimped a connecter on for now until I get to town. This cleared everything and I’m back to normal.
    Thanks for all the input!
