brakes engaged all the time!
posting this up top because I need my truck. Brakes are squeaking like the pedal is pushed, I think I feel the drag.
I AM going to bypass the whole dump valve assembly thing - but check this idiot move out and tell me if I have more trouble:
I was under there reworking the spare tire holder and thought - hey, what if I just plug this ABS electrical thing back in after unplugging it a year ago? Then did a short trip, and after about a mile, I started hearing squeaks, and I think the brakes are engaged, without my foot on the pedal.!? like, the thing worked for a minute, engaged the brakes, and now won't UN-engage them. Could that be a thing? I quickly unplugged it again, but it still seems like the brakes are on - like I have the Ebrake engaged (which I don't) or is this some crazy coincidence, and it's something else? can't be, right?
Besides bypassing the thing, what can I do *right now* to get my brakes to *not* work so much?
