The main reasons why the ABS and brake light might come on in a 2007 Ford F-150 are a faulty wheel sensor, a bad ABS module, or low brake fluid. The first step to troubleshoot the issue is to check the brake fluid levels. Simply pop open the hood, locate the brake fluid reservoir, and inspect if it is at the recommended level. Next, you will need an OBD diagnostic tool to identify the specific error code. If you don't have one, you can borrow or use one from a local auto-parts store, as they may have tools available for customer use. Replacing the faulty parts can cost between $200 to $500, depending on the components and labor involved.
It appears there is a loose solder connection within the instrument cluster. You can watch YouTube videos for instructions on how to re-solder the area, or you can choose not to attempt it.
The ABS and brake indicators on your 2007 Ford F-150 may light up because of a malfunctioning wheel sensor or if your brake fluid levels are low.
