My girl broke my truck

The rear brake hose on my '01 Ram burst while my girl was on her way to pick up a dresser. She managed to get home safely, but this completely drained the brake lines. After I replaced the hose and bled the system, the brakes work great but the abs and brake warning lights won't shut off. Any ideas?

You may need to bleed the ABS unit ? or You may need a ABS capable scanner to reset the light did you bleed them according to the book ?

I tried disconnecting the battery, no luck. As far as bleeding, I didn't know there was a special procedure. I bled it just as I do my '69 Charger.

You may need to bring it to a parts store that offers free scanning to see what it is exactly.

Is there enough fluid in the reservoir? Are the brakes squishy at all? Do they do down to the ground after stopping?
