17 Silverado ABS brakes kicking in


Recommended Posts

I noticed over the weekend when backing my boat down the ramp that my ABS brakes are kicking in the whole time while backing up. Makes it very difficult to stop the truck. I can even replicate it without the boat by just backing down a slope in reverse and applying the brakes, you can feel the ABS brakes kick in and the peddle goes to the floor. I cant get into the dealer till next week, is there a way to disable the ABS brakes in the mean time since i pull a trailer for work?

 

I will mention this just started happening since I replaced my front rotors and brake pads. Is there something that needs to be reset in the computer possibly?

No reset required for brake replacements.

 

Could have a bad wheel speed sensor and that is why it's doing what it is. You should be able to just pull the ABS fuse to stop it from working.
