Brake warning lights on dash

So the warning lights on the dash came on in my 2000. It's the abs light and brake lights. I think it's telling me that my and module is done. They come on above 30 mph, but the truck still stops great. I can't get any codes from the abs. Any insight as to what's possibly going on?

Ok, I figured it out. I had my waste gate bypassed and the truck was throwing an overboost code. Hooked it back up and the lights never came back on. Downfall is, I went from 28 psi to 20 psi of boost. I need a tuner.

I like my Smarty. Different programs, better mileage, boost fooler, code reader/resetter, tire diameter adjuster and three cylinder high idle warmup. Get a boost elbow with it.

It recognizes the stock computer programming if you need to go back for any reason. I had my stock software updated at Dodge beforehand in case it made a difference. Ran better than before the update...and much better after the Smarty.

I was thinking of getting a smarty. It's a bit cheaper than edge juiced, but was also considering the edge ez, or edge comp.

Not sure why your abs and brake light would come on in relation to an over boost issue...

Mine come on if I drive thru deeper mud or water, not really any relation to engine boost...

It threw me off too. But all I did was plug the waste gate back in and the lights never came on while I was driving. I'll play with it some and see what it does.

The only thing I can think of is the tone ring or sensor had an issue and it coincidently resolved it's self when I plugged the wage gate back in.
