Default ABS

This weekend i managed to blow both wheel cylinders at once somehow and limped it home with scarce brake usage. At some point during that limping period the ABS light came on. After replacing the wheel cylinders and topping the reservoir off (never got low enough to suck air), the light is still on. Any ideas how to get it to go off?

the abs controller will lose its memory after two minutes of the batteries being unhooked if memory codes are the problem

zjohn. i think what keith was tellin you to un hook your batteries for 2 mins then hook em back up the light should go out. your truck has memory of your brakes being bad but if you un hook the batteries itll forget all about that limp home with no brakes

Thanks hughesis, had a bit of a brain fart haha. Will try the battery disconnection truck this afternoon and if that doesn't do the truck then the brake bleed will get done this weekend. Ill post up here if one works or if other solutions are needed. Thanks yall for the info so far
