Good afternoon,

The ABS is a separate system from the regular braking system.

If the light is on, I need the fault code stored.

As far as the wheel locking up, I would check the caliper and the brake hose to make sure the caliper is staying applied after you brake.

I attached a description, diagram and the brake hose below for you to view.

The wheel starts grabbing while the truck is moving without touching the brake.

I know. I read that before.

You need to check or have someone check the items I posted for the failure.
