If the ABS warning light is illuminated on your 2008 Ford F-150, it indicates that the ABS system has detected an issue. This could be due to low brake fluid levels or a malfunction with a sensor triggering the light. To obtain more details, you should use an OBD II scan tool to check for any codes stored in the ECU. Sometimes, the ABS light may come on after a loss of traction as the system pulses the brakes to assist in maintaining traction. The ECU typically stores information about such events.
