bad day
ok thismorning my break and abs lights came on on my dash. thougth maybe it was telling me its time to check my back breaks? brother had a truck that did that dont remember what brand not a dodge though... anyways then on my way home had the driverside breake line in fornt burst got is over and stoped found a shop with the line replced it bled it figerd thats probibly what the light was o and it is pulling to the right when i stop, thought maybe that would be fixed too but it still pulls and the lights are still on?? could it be the back breaks or is there something wrong with my breaks all together?

Does this vehicle have 4 wheel ABS or just rear? Generally speaking, on a vehicle with 4 wheel ABS, if one wheel speed sensor fails, it will erroneously read 0 mph while braking, and the controller will think it's skidding and reduce braking to that wheel. This will cause both a brake pull, and an ABS lamp illumination. Not saying this is your problem, but it's where I'd look first.

Does your speedo not work rite till your over 10 mph. I had a problem with my speed sensors in the rear goin out and it sets off the abs and brake light and my speedo was not reading till about 10 mph then it would jump up and be fine. The sensor is right in the top of the pumkin on the back diff. I think they were dealer only parts but only like $20s.

Try bleeding all of the lines and see if that helps. Otherwise if it pulls to the right it could indicate a stuck caliper on the driver side. Remanufactured calipers are pretty inexpensive, if you're over 150k on the stockers I'd say get some rebuilts for about $70 for the set. That way you can rule that possiblity out if it doesn't work. This would be my first guess it you don't have 4 wheel ABS.

its just abs in the rear, i havent paied atention to the speado enoff to see if thats it, but it could be, i know theres some sort of short cuz every now and then all the gages on my dash shutdown i hit the top and they all come back... if the right had more pressur y didnt it blow first? o by the way the right just blew tonight. o when all the gages stop the same 2 lights come on. already spent over $1000 at dodge they havent fixed it im tired of working with them i just want it fixed, if i droped as much money into suping this truck up as i have fixing it itd be over 1000 hp by now!!!

rear diff speed sensor is my guess.... but have the codes pulled for sure to check.
nm i just re-read that... all your guages stop working? weird.. i'd be looking at the computer. get your codes pulled.

you said its a rear abs only? brake switch, abs computer, rear speed sensor or wires are broken in between the rear speed sensor and the computer.
i think i've heard autozone will read your codes for free.. or do you guys have that place in the states?
continuity test for the wires (make sure you jump the 2 wires at the sensor to best both at hte same time).

i have my own code reader if the check light comes on. but its not on, ill go check it anyway, would that cause me to blow the front 2 lines? just did the hub convertion and changed the front break pads, can imagen that did it

can your code reader read abs codes? abs and engine codes are seperate things. honestly i've never seen a dodge blow 2 front lines at once and i get a lot of yahoos in company trucks in from the bush cause they've done whatever.
