« on: February 20, 2009, 07:39:38 pm »
I trust this site more then others so maybe some one can help me out.
I was driving along and my ABS light came on...Scanned it and it said the drivers side wheel speed sensor was bad.
So i bought a new one and installed it the light went off. Drove it on some snow and stopped and it came back on..So
i am right back to ware i started from.
