Ok, so I’ve turned the internet, owners manual, and forums upside down trying to find this or any fuse related to the ABS or brakes! Not exactly sure why it’s a struggle, but was hoping one of y’all could point me in the right direction. I’m getting the ABS and BRAKE lights flashing when stopped for some reason. They do go away once I start driving, but clearly something is wrong. I normally do all the work to my vehicles myself(when possible) but this will be going to the dealer next Monday, but at this point, it’s the principle. I want to know where this dog gone fuse is!
Anyone have any idea? What in the Sam hell am I missing?
 
I mean no disrespect with this seemingly dumb suggestion, but have you checked the level of the brake fluid? sometimes its the simplest thing causing an issue

No disrespect taken. Yes I did. I will say this, I hate all master cylinders! You can;t ever see too well on the levels. I did take the lid off and could see the fluid at the top though.
Back last year I was having one of my suspension air bags(rear) blowing up and the dealer had to replace it 2 times. I bring this up bc I remember the ABS and BRAKE lights flashing back then as well. Suspension seems to be fine now but who knows? Geeesh
I was hoping, but not really counting on it being a blown fuse, but it don’t hurt to check. If you can find the damn thing
 
I have a 2019 1500. There also was a recall just out on the ABS. It was a software update. Had mine done in and out in 20 minutes. Also check to make sure that the cable to the wheel speed/ABS sensors are not damaged or bad. Make sure that your 12-volt battery the one up front (Not MDS) is good. May have to check what ABS code it is throwing to tell if it is a sensor or module. Check the battery first. Have seen it cause a similar issue. Anyway just a few things that I have run across.

Got mine done last Dec 2024.

I will check those other things for sure. I did see that the speed sensors may cause the ABS to have issues. Appreciate the tips
 
It’s a strange thing bc my Autel MaxiCheck Pro isn’t the best AlphOBD2 scanner and it don’t even go past 2017 for some reason on Chrysler , so I used 2017 just to see if I could get anything to come up. Well, it appears it worked and I hit “read codes” and this came up C10EC-00 which Google says “indicates a fault in the electronic parking brake (EPB) actuator correlation. I erased the code. However, I didn’t ever have anything lit up on the dash except when I was stopped like I had said. Then those two lights went away.
Point is, not sure how accurate all that info was since I used 2017 on my OBD2
I will also say, I did a live and drive test while hooked up and all 4 speed sensors seemed to work just fine. FYI
What’s y’all’s thoughts on this scenario? Besides me needing a better scanner..lol
 
I think that I will invest into a good Scan tool. I am past the warranty period. My wife drives a Town and Country. Hope ya find out the trouble and get it repaired. Will be watching to see what ya find.
 
I still have my appointment on Monday I believe it is, so I was thinking maybe my Tazor DT might possibly have something to do with it? I have to unmarry it anyway before taking it in so might as well try that. Seriously doubt it, but might as well give it a shot.
Anyone think that might have something to do with it?

Which one are you thinking of for a scan tool? There are so many and I’ve just ran into too many issues that make me want a better one, but dang! Hard to choose
