My brake light and ABS come on after I have been driving for 10 minutes or so.

My brake pads and shoes are fine.
I have an adequate amount of brake fluid in the resivoir.
Could this be a speed sensor, since my cruise control is not working either?

  I just had same problem with my truck did a little checked around on internet found out could only be two things in which it was in the end. First found out the speed sensor are a big problem on these trucks and make both brake and abs light up on dash if that doesn't do the trick it could be that you have some play in your ebrake wire so try released your ebrake while pulling the lever up at same time and have you checked your fluids levels some time it could be something as small as that hope this help

  Obvious problem with the ABS system, Scan the ECU and go from there.
  Could be wheel sensor faults, ABS Control module fault.
