Brake problem

Hey TDRer's,

I need your help again! On the 95 dodge I have when you press on the brake you can feel that the ABS don't always grab...but if you quickly release the pedal and depress again they will grab, which causes the ABS and brake light to come on and stay until you shut it off and restart it. Seems to be more apparent with a heavy load behind you. The pads and rotors are all good and plenty of brake fluid. I have tried unplugging the ABS and they seem to work better. Anyone out there have any ideas for me????

Tony
