In addition to the cold start problem (see other thread), A few times over the last month I will get a dash warning on start up the Check Brake System with that non stop annoying beep. This is an independent problem to the cold start, it happens when the truck is plenty warmed up. If I shut the truck off and let the computer reset then start back up, it either goes away or I have to repeat the process a few times to get the warning to go away. One time, I drove it accross the parking lot with the warning still on to see if the brakes felt wierd or something. They felt normal. This has only happened 4-5 times and seems to be random.

Anyone ever seen this?

Look on the body mount under the drivers door. There is a bolt with a ground wire on it. Take it off and clean the frame and wire connector with a wire brush and reinstall. Coat it with a type of undercoating and you should not have it happen again. I had that problem and did this and it hasn't happend since. It's a tip I got on this site.
