The truck will continually flash an ABS and Electronic Break System (EBS) service light with alert ding.

This issue is ongoing and there is no rhyme or reason as to why it is happening. The only option is to replace the ABS hydraulic pump.

ABS and traction control lights intermittent flashing. Service ABS warning flashes and chiming occur.
