In a Ford Ranger, the ABS control module is positioned beside the battery in the engine bay on the left side of the vehicle. This module is a small computer responsible for managing the braking system in your truck. Your vehicle is equipped with ABS, which pulsates the brakes during stops to prevent them from locking up. If your brakes are indeed locking up while stopping, it may indicate an issue with this module. Typically, a check engine or ABS light will illuminate on your dashboard to signal a problem with the module. In the event of a failure, you'll need to swap it out with a new one.
The ABS control module in a Ford Ranger should be situated near the battery on the driver's side, which is the left side.
My pickup truck won't start. Could the ABS system be preventing it from starting? Despite the engine turning over, it just won't start up.
