If you see the ABS brake warning light illuminated on the dashboard of your Ford F-150, it is important to check your brake system as the light may be triggered by fluid leaks or worn-out pads. Assuming everything is in order with your brakes, you can proceed to reset the warning light, which is a straightforward process. To do this, start by turning the vehicle to the "on" position with the engine off. Next, disconnect the negative cable from the battery and leave it detached for ten minutes. This will ensure the system loses power entirely and resets when you start the car again.
