I had this exact problem on my 2007 Chevy Equinox. My ABS module was fried, so it took my mechanic about 7 weeks to diagnose and fix my problem. He replaced the ABS module, then replaced the left front wheel bearing hub assembly. Then, the ABS light came back on, so he replaced the right rear wheel bearing hub assembly. He cleaned my right front and left rear wheel bearing hubs with brake cleaner. Hopefully, they won't have to be replaced. So far, I've spent almost $600 on repairs.

Just fixed both my amber lights . abs and traction control on my dash. in my code diagnosis it showed front left wheel speed sensor on my 2004 esv escallade. I had replaced both front hubs with new sensors included. That is when my dash light showed abs and traction control. So I knew old sensors were ok. I had no problems with old hubs either just waned to update my front end. No need to take off calipers from disc just have a bucket to set disc and entire brake assembly still mounted to disc. No need to take out hub or big wheel nut . just unscrew Allen wrench nut off of wheel speed sensor . when unplugging sensor be sure new one gets plugged all the way back in before tightening the Allen screw .I used dielectric grease and used my old sensor, as new sensor was throwing the code. This is for front end. 2004 esv 6.0 escallade. Wheel speed sensor.

I have a 2004 Chevrolet SSR, then had 100,000 miles. 10 years ago. The ABS & Traction control I first had trouble codes for everything. Engine, Exhaust failure, Brakes, Transmission etc. I asked on the SSR fanatics & took to Chevrolet Dealer. No help from either because? Not one mechanic had seen or worked on the SSR in Toledo Area. Most SSRs from 2004 to 2006 around 24,178 were built. Nobody had a problem because you have to drive a car for parts to wear out. Confused why Trailblazer did not have issues? I had several helpful mechanics resolve the problem. Well I tried the sensors on wheels. Found several had failed. So I replaced all disc brake pads, Rotors & calipers that were worn need replacement. I took my SSR to a car show & found a local expert looking at my SSR. He told me how to fix ABS, Traction Control, Heater motor, Over heating of engine etc. He told me that some engineer designed the Trailblazer Chassis with the ABS Traction control right next to the Catalytic converter. The heat soak in traffic & after parked. OR? The engine in 04 is creating lots more power than catalytic converter was made for. The heat would conduction & radiation to the ABS Traction control. The failure is inside the module. The solder on circuit board melts. Wires can too. I found a replacement on ebay. Lots of work under truck using torx socket to remove the module. It was burned. I also found that the ground was bad for the ABS Traction control. So I ran another ground.

In turn the transmission shifting was acting funky. Did some troubleshooting of my own.(i am not a mechanic but mechanically inclined with good instincts). Nothing i did got the the warning lights to go off. I don't have a fancy computer to plug into it just a $40 O'Reilly special. So no codes for the abs sensor or anything like that came up. Does anybody have any thoughts on this matter?

Something else is causing your issue with shifting out of park. The brake light switch won't cause the ABS and Traction Control lights to illuminate. You probably have an issue with one of your wheel speed sensors. Most likely one of the front ones as they're the most common to fail.

@ts6034 great video man. I just bought an 07 1500 and when I “re-learned” the tire pressures, I discovered there aren’t any TPMS sensors and my light is always on. Would this cause an issue with my service stabilitrak light? Funny too it idles like hell and throws a o2 code every now and then? Idk how a bad part would be okay one day and not the next lol. Hoping it won’t become a lemon!!
@Tomsfoolery.
@Tomsfoolery. 6 жыл бұрын
Thanks! The lack of tire pressure sensors should not cause an ABS light. You likely have a bad wheel speed sensor. My guess would be one of the front ones. Quite common on the chevy trucks. Sometimes you can get away with removing the sensor and cleaning the rust from where it mounts into the hub. As the rust builds up, it increases the distance between the tone ring and the sensor causing bad readings.

The front passenger side abs speed sensor is failing in my 06 grand prix AGAIN. I've had the whole hub assembly replaced multiple times. Is this just common?? Any suggestions/advice??
@Tomsfoolery.

Do you know if the bearing is failing or just the sensor? It is common for the cheaper hub assemblies to fail prematurely. Also, make certain that the axle nut is being torqued with a torque wrench and not being ran down with an impact gun. There are a lot of "mechanics" out there who don't believe it makes a difference but it totally does!

How did you test the part to ascertain it was defective? I wouldn't want to dump a hundred bucks into something I didn't need.

My 08 CTS was doing the samething only the brake light was on along with all the other lights..it'll go off and come back on..sometimes it stays off for awhile then comes back but then goes away again..you think it's the same problem?

It’s possible. Have an auto parts store scan it for you and see what codes come up.

Is it better to drive with traction and stabillitrac off all the time will this prolong the life of both systems or is it better for it to be allways on

Leave it on. It will not prolong the life of the speed sensors as they operate whenever the vehicle is in motion.

Would anyone happen to know if these two lights commonly turn on after getting some collision damage fixed? The lights were *not* on before I got the work done. Just got the car back today and both ABS and T/C lights are on.

It’s quite possible they forgot to plug in a wheel speed sensor if that was part of the repair or had to be removed for the repair.

+Tasha N1 not typically because it generally disables the ABS once one of the sensers drops out. That being said, if the signal is only dropping out when you’re braking to a stop, it will engage the ABS which in turn will cause some pedal movement.

It can make it pull to one side. When the bearing is bad the tire will slightly lean in on the top which causes the rotor to ride the inside brake pad and because of the heat generated by that brake will grab more than the others causing it to pull to that side. It’s a common thing. You’ll see this in your brake pads. Inside is wore more than outside and will also have a slight taper to it. Ask me how I know. Tasha N1, the sensor reads all the time, not only during braking. It’s used for stabilitrac and traction control. When your sensor is bad it disables the ABS, stabilitrac and traction control setting the lights.

Where can I get the ABS codes read? I have a ODBII reader but does not do ABS. Also, I noticed my light and message came on after "curbing" the back right tire on a turn. I would like to confirm with ABS code reader.

I know a lot of the parts stores will scan engine codes. Not sure if they will do ABS or not. You can buy a code reader off eBay that will read ABS fault codes fairly cheap.
