Okay my service light, abs, and trac off light come on once in a while, so when i replce both sensors is their anything you have to line up right or anything or just bolt them up and plug them in.


GOD : The way, the truth, and the life.

Lesson learned, possibly. Complete brake line flush and fill every other year. Cost is cheaper than a couple of $100 ABS components. As for lining them up, well, do an exact replacement with new ones as you can. Check for binding -spin wheel all the way around-, then road test.

How does a brake line flush (Hydraulic) prevent the ABS sensor (Electrical) from failing?

Sure confusing me

Like any another sensor the brake fuild will start to go dark, just like oil and it will gum up the Sensor.

WTF??? The Wheel speed sensor (aka ABS sensor) does NOT come in contact with brake fluid AT ALL. Wheel speed sensors do fail, resistance out of range, no longer generate the A/C voltage the ABS controller needs to determine wheel speed, or the tone ring is dirty or corroded.

As far as flushing the brake fluid preventing sensor problems, no way in hell. But flushing the brake fluid is a good idea.


1 last thing, the problem DeepDreams is having may not be related to a wheel speed sensor, sounds more like a speed sensor issue on the trans. A faulty wheed speed sensor won't illuminate the CEL, just the ABS and brake lights.
