Re: ABS and TRAC OFF

well i took the wheel off in an attempt to repair the wire. and i noticed that the wire came right out of the hub. i tried pushing it back in to see if it would connect but nothing. getting another hub assembly tomorrow. thanks for all the suggestions.

Re: ABS and TRAC OFF

well i replaced the front left hub assembly and all was good until today. the abs and trac worked fine for about a week then the lights came back on. so i took it to a garage and they found 9 codes! he reset them and took the car for a drive and all 9 came back. here they are:
C1216 - Electronic brake control relay coil open
C1221 - LF wheel speed 0 mph
C1225 - LF excessive wheel speed
C1232 - LF wheel sensor shorted or open
C1238 - LF ESB will not hold Mtr
C1252 - LF channel in release too long
C1291 - Open brake lamp switch during deceleration
C1293 - code 1291 set in previous ign cycle
C1294 - brake lamp switch circuit always active

Re: ABS and TRAC OFF

If one or more of the relays/fuses for the ABS are bad it can throw some of those codes.
But I'd say its the wires or the plug on the LF hub is shorted out or unplugs(not making good contact).

Typical with these hubs cause the wires go thru the knuckle and get damaged pretty easily.

Re: ABS and TRAC OFF

well i looked and found my left front harness came undone. i had to extend the wire on it because it was too short and came out of the connector. fixed that and started up the car and the lights were out. took the car down the road and they come back on. so im guessing it cleared the codes that were for the LF wheel but the remaining codes are still there. ill have to check the fuses and relays but i didnt find any bad ones last time.

Re: ABS and TRAC OFF

You probly will have to clear the codes, with an ABS scan tool, after the repairs were made.
