Total Sign Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Car has 108k miles. 3.8L auto, TCS, ABS Driving home, fucking around in snow... All of a sudden, new light comes on, "ABS INOP" and the red "Brake" light (same as when hand brake is pulled) comes on. The "LOW TRAC" light also comes on. Is there some type of wheel sensor I fubar'd? Whole system? Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el aguila Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Probably a wheel speed sensor. Check to make sure snow isn't on the teeth of the reluctor wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex1647545498 Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 It's at the end of your axle next to the hub. It's on the inside so you'll have to get under the car to see it. You'll see teeth on it and there will be a sensor around that area. Look for wiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin5s Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 look to see if you are low on brake fluid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Do you or do you not have traction control (TCS)? Yes: You have four-channel ABS and the sensors for them system are on the wheels themselves, near the ends of the axels. No: You have three-channel ASB and your sensor resides on the top of your differential. Which in this case, the reluctor wheel comment applies. Figure out your channel setup and post back.
