    Yep, the oil presure is too high with engine warm @170 degrees coolat, i would take it in shop. Don't ignore abs light on, could be faulty sensor, or something more sinister ,i checked mine in time few years ago, was the axle spindle worn out ,bearing spinning lose chewing the axle.
    They'll pull you over in scale for abs light on, I 've seen the inspectors checking the dash lights.

    There is no water in fuel sensor equipped in 99% of D12’s. That icon notes fuel pressure low or restriction. The proper place to start to to verify that the Davco element is correct. Many replace the filter with whatever, but they require no more than a 25 micron filter. Many places sell the 7 micron. D12 engines fault out at 13psi fuel pressure which is far less than the engine needs to run opimallly. If the proper filters are installed, and in good shape, check the accessory drive bearing condition (the pulley that drives the belts). The fuel pump on this engine runs off a 6” shaft that keys into the back side of the accessory drive. If the tapered bearings are worn in the accessory drive, the vibration is notorious for taking out the fuel pump. There’s also the possibility that the “overflow valve” at the head is failed, but this is not a frequently failing part on these engines.
