I had that going on with my 97 for a while and now it is stuck on all the time I drive. I've been trying to trouble shoot it but have not had any luck. But I'm subscribed because I'd like to see if you are able to figure it out maybe I have the same problem.

As of right now mine has came on and stayed on for a few days, it all started right after a huge snow that we had

Well that sound like a wiring issue if anything given the snow situation. To be honest OLDBULL8 has been trying to help me with mine. This weekend I'm hoping to see if the E-Brake releases completely. But I'd like to figure these systems out better for the future. Too busy doing an EGR on a 6.0L right now to fold up my time with the 97.

Got a steal on the truck tho, my step father bought it sealed bids for 700 dollars

Man 700 bones is legit. I got my 97 for 1000. Guy couldn't get it started. I knew it was the FCM drove out gave him the money and dude was like where is your trailer? I told him it wasn't necessary. 5 minutes later dude watched me drive it home. Good times. Still no luck with light huh?

well today it was off all day long
so i think im gonna invest in some duct tape and put a piece over the light, that will fix it

Ha ha. Duct tape. Or pull the light. I've been debating that myself. I haven't decided yet.

Have no idea what it is, but i cant tell that the truck does anything wrong when the light is on

Good Morning Ya'll.
well today it was off all day long
Save your money on duct tape, a two pound ball peen hammer will fix it, one little blow to the light and it's out forever.

Is the speedo bouncing? I think the rear sensor controls speedo and abs iirc

Since you said it came on and stayed on during a snow storm, I am betting water is somehow getting into the wiring and grounding it out. I bet if you get under your truck and look at where the wires go into your RABS you will find the problem, that or check out the speed sensor on your axle but I dunno if it has anything to do with the ABS.
