    You will need some clues as to why the light is coming on. The best way to find out is to get the codes scanned that are causing the light to come on. Once you have those, you have clues on what direction to go in to solve the problem.

    Have you had any work done on the van lately? If you have had regular brake work, for example, it could be possible that a sensor is not working or there is too much clearance between the sensor and sensor indicator ring.

    Start with the test and go from there... Good luck.
