Electrical gremlin just started on the way to work today.

Upon my way in to work today about 2 minutes away from the driveway, my radio all of a sudden goes black, no lights no sound. 10 seconds later it comes back on, only with an annoying squeal that is in tune with the engine RPM. Along with this new lovely squeal I also have a battery indicator light that flickers on and off randomly seldom for off for more than a few seconds.
My Battery guage that used to hold steady at the 3/4 mark now stay at about the same level, but bounces a little. Then after about 20 minutes more on my way to work, my ABS light popped on and has stayed ever since.

I changed the clutch last Saturday and was in the area of the master cylinder area while bleeding it, and probabaly spilt some fluid while there. Do these symptoms sound like brake fluid in a connector playing tricks, or do I have something else to look for? I've been driving the truck for a few days since the clutch change with no issues at all....

You have a bad connection somewhere. Probably a bad ground wire. possibly right at the battery.

In any case the battery is the place to start looking for the lose wire. If you cannot locate it. Add some new ground from the battery to the fender AND a new one from the block to the fender/firewall. You can Never have too many ground wires.

And I say ground since the radio is squealing.
