Brake Pedal

On my 93 w350 the brakes will stop the truck, but the pedal will not come all the way back out. The park brake light and the ABS lights Stay on as well. What do you think the problem is? Thanx

I think the brake booster pushes the pedal back up.

So is the booster bad or what! I can't seem to see why all of a sudden the pedal doesn't to play right.

Is the pedal harder to push down than it used to be?

I'd check the vacuum connections first, but for me replacing the booster (the second time) brought the pedal back up.

the brake/ABS lights is something different-check the sticky.

I put a new booster in tonite and a new MC and all seems to OK. When I took the booster out the rods fell on the floor, so I guess that was it. Now I need to fix my cruise. Hope you can help with that.
