Retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). See RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  under DIAGNOSIS & TESTING. Check speed sensor circuits. See DTC 31-34: SPEED SENSOR CIRCUIT  under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. Check brakelight switch circuit. See BRAKELIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT  under COMPONENT TESTS. Check ABS/TRAC actuator. See ABS/TRAC ACTUATOR CHECK  under COMPONENT TESTS. If ABS/TRAC actuator is okay, check hydraulic system for leaks. See Figure. If all listed items test okay, replace ABS/TRAC ECU.
