X2 it's all speculation until you get the codes that are setting the lights off.

It is possible the vibration from the sawzall disturbed something in the board for the EBCM

Mine did this when my speed sensor was acting up after the T56 swap. Basically it was getting a bad reading from the speed sensor causing the ABS light to come on and BRAKE light to flash. Check these wires.

You cant just start throwing parts and guesse's at these new trucks. In order to have a effective timely and reasonable cost of repair you gotta pull the damm codes and go from there.

FYI any salvage yard has ebcm's by the dozen so don't frett if it is bad.

The wires at the ABS module could be rusted. You can also get the ABS module rebuilt like i did for like $150. Check absfixer dot com

WooHoo my lights are coming on now too! Getting them read tomorrow. I lowered my truck and converted the rear drums to disc brakes and came on afterwords. Hopefully something simple!

Mine does this intermittently, and I am not too sure why. It started a few months back around the time I powered my truck. Once I set the parking break and take it back off, it comes on, but when I turn the truck off, and back on, it goes away. It has came on like 4 times in about 3 months...it did also come on once while jumping someone off.

Yea it goes away when I turn the truck off and back on and I don't think it comes on when I let it idle. I been keeping up with it and it seems to be about 5 minutes into driving and they both kick on at the same time and go away once I kill it. Tomorrow we will know lol!

Mine have never came on while driving, just on initial start up.
