I've not seen any mention of that Joe.
Welcome to the site, hopefully someone can chime in that has any info. Let us know how you dealer visit goes!
 
I have no idea what is causing the ABS malfunction but that light being on is what is prevention cruise control.

Air suspension, ABS, esc, so on and so forth; anything regarding the suspension o braking system that puts on a EVIC message and your cruise control will not operate.

I had a little trouble with my air suspension (playing with it too much) and had a similar issue with cruise.
 
I guess get the dealer to check out the ABS sensors and wheel speed sensors. Something happened
 
Well got my truck bk they said it was the speed sensor but his expression showed like he was not sure
 
Theoretically that should be it. Maybe damage to the wiring for it was allowing moisture to throw it off
 
Have you taken a look at BoostN post of the latest recall for the rear axle it states contact your dealer immediately if your abs light comes on.
 
I don't know about that being a complete failure. I'd think if ABS light came on it'd be wayyy too late. And he seemed to have a reoccurring issue whenever moisture was present. But we haven't gotten an update so who knows..?
 
I figured it may be worth mentioning. It's not very often we see moisture related electrical issues anymore with all of the weatherpac connectors etc. Not saying it's not possible but with our conditions might have been more coincidence than cause.
 
They said they replace the speed sensor lets see what happens after Next rain
 
That's why I referenced a possible damaged wiring section or similar in the beginning. I understand there's a lot more preventative measures towards water resistance on wiring but there's still things that could happen; i.e. over torquing the wheel sensor or misaligned sensor during the installation cracking the housing, or damaged wiring.
 
But you're right in that situation a dealer should be more than sure especially during R&I when they find damage so who knows really without the physical hands on and in your face diagnosis
 
There is no doubt....the modern wire insulation is garbage we have replaced several harness on our tractors due the the loom wearing right through the wires. Speed sensors anymore though are typically on the transmission.
 
He means the wheel speed sensor for ABS/ESC/TC not referencing it as the actual speedometer sensor
