The valve was a PITA to reset, only because of it's location on the frame, which is now under my ORD steering box brace. If it isn't flowing to the front brakes, there it a button on the valve you can push to reset it. If it isn't flowing to the rear, you have to remove the porportioning valve from the combination valve, and then push the shuttle valve towards the front circuit, it clicks into place.
Not sure; I don't think so.

I thought the valve was the one right outside the master cylinder, with the wire running to the top? There is also some sort of module right beside all that. Both the 89 pickup and the 91 suburban seem to have the same system.

The shop that I had fix the brakes (they were completely destroyed!) didn't know how to get the light off and didn't know why I should even care. Yeah, it's just a "ranch truck' but I don't go to that shop anymore
