So many rookie Q's so little time (1st Brake Light)

This is an incredible resource for us diesel rookies. It's us rookies that can only afford the older (but, wiser) rigs. Unfortunately, it's these rigs that need the TLC. Oh-well, baptism by fire. Gotta love it.
Two years ago I had the Parking and ABS light combo. After replacing Master and booster I extinguished them both. About nine months ago my parking brake light joined me again. Finally, Last week I got greasy and replaced pads and shoes, turned rotors and drums. Bled each wheel, but I still can't shake the glowing red light. Is it just a Dodge thing?

Thanks for all your future words of wisdom,

Cotto

??Side note, why does my insurance guy swear my truck is only equipped with RWAL, when I know my amber (ABS) light comes on every time I start my truck. For this I'm losing out on the "ABS" discount.
