Random brake problem

[Wildbill81]

Occasionally in the mornings when I start my car up I’ll hear a weird squeak sounds from either under the dash behind the gauge cluster or some where around the BMC. Then about 30 secs later all the brake warning lights will turn on my gauge cluster and starts ringing like u have the ebrake engaged.
Made a video this morning.

Does the light go off or does it remain on? It could be a low brake fluid level, or your alternator could be on its way out.

Yes sorry it shuts off after a couple minutes. Checked brake fluid level, looks good. Seems to happen more on cold mornings oddly enough

Just found out it’s the ABS module. That’s not cheap

^^^ Exactly. It is the brake booster pump. DON'T drive the truck.

Check here: These guys rebuild the pump. Many LandCruiser owners use their service.
