I would fix the sensor issue first and go from there. I think some of the ABS codes stay until cleared but could be off on that. I bought a 4 pack of cheap sensors from Amazon figuring some should at least work for awhile. The only one I installed is still going a year later.

Thanks for the information. Maybe this is a coincidence, but I did replace the right front bearing assembly around 2 years ago (~40k miles). I'm pretty sure I had to remove the sensor at that time. I just mentioned that since I hear horror stories about removing the sensors on trucks in the rust belt.

I've spent way too much money on fixing the ABS issues on truck. The LF wiring from near the ABS block to the hub cost $180 CAD with a discount from the Toyota dealer where I work part time. I wasn't going to get bent over again so I was cheap and bought an Amazon special (most likely made in China) wheel speed sensor. I think it was less than $20 CAD shipped to my door and it fixed my problem.

I will take a look at that sensor if this issue persists. I definitely don't want to go down the rabbit hole with dealer diagnostic fees. Appreciate the tip on the aftermarket sensors as well. I normally stick with OEM but for a small fraction of the price, I don't see why I wouldn't try an aftermarket one first.

A bit more information here.
I found an historical code when I connect to what OBD Fusion calls the Generic OBD2 module. This is where I would normally go to get MIL engine codes. I have to say that I am not too familiar with checking codes on this truck as I never encountered one in the 100k miles that I have owned it with the exception of an evap code that I caused when I replaced my fuel sending relay earlier this year.
This historical code that I found was P0504. Maybe the brake switch is the root cause of the issue on VSC/ABS side? Clearly the issue is intermittent as there are no lights on currently.
I ended up clearing the 4 codes on the ABS/VTRAC module. I did not clear the historical code on the generic module since it is clearly noted as historical.
