Default abs and brake keep on turning on

I have a question. My abs and brake light turns on any moment or when I just push the brake sightly. The only way that I turn it off is I just turn the ignition off. Can any help me with this problem? I think its the sensors going out.

Yr of vehicle would help.

Theres sensors at all 4 corners. Possibly dirty, but I doubt all 4 are bad. I don't know much bout ABS.

EDIT: I remember reading bout how the sensors tend to rust over, or something along them lines. I've never seen it in person though. My truck is still to new for any probs...

If you get it fixed, let us know what the issue was, I know it'll happen to me eventually.

did you check the brake fluid level? can cause this. PS low brake fluid is a sign of either a leak or worn front brakes

Have a shop read your DTC's and tell you what the are. Sounds like a faulty wheel bearing or speed sensor, there are three speed sensors on you truck, one on each front wheel and one on the transmission. The shop should be able to tell you what is faulty.
