The first ABS on/off light is a bulb test. After the bulb test,
the CAB (Controller Anti-lock Brake) turns the lamp on or off
based upon the results of the ABS self-tests. The lamp turning
on the second time indicates that the CAB has detected a system
malfunction and/or that the ABS system has become inoperative.
When you write that the brake lights light up, I assume that
you mean the brake lights in the rear. If you mean the red brake
lamp warning lamp in the dash, this means that the base brake
system is not operating normally.
Suggest that you get your truck to a garage asap. Hope this helps.
