2006SilverSS Posted January 5, 2009 Report Posted January 5, 2009 my abs light came on today i reset it an it came back on i think the sensor might be bad or maybe has some ice build up on it the brakes feel the same any ideas thanks I kinda had the same thing happen a while ago in my truck. I thought maybe it was just a fluke at first but when it happened the 2nd time I took it in. They ended up replacing the brake controller since it was bad. I was lucky that I was still in warranty for that, hopefully it's something else for you since I doubt that thing is cheap. Quote
joe2004ss Posted January 17, 2009 Author Report Posted January 17, 2009 it ended up being the drivers hub assembly 250.00 to fix Quote
Andy 606 Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 (edited) I had it come on b4 and i replaced the sensor it went off 4 a while when i took the old sensor out it broke so i had to pick it out and use a reverse drill bit to get it out then about a month later the wheel bering went so i replaced it and it came with a new sensor so i replaced both front wheel bering's i think i got both for 550 canadian the truck had about 96000 km on it then i think the sensor its self was 120 canadian Edited January 17, 2009 by Andy 606 (see edit history) Quote
