2012 Regal - Possible Wheel Bearing

Got just over 85,000 KM and I think a wheel sensor is gone. The ABS light is and also the traction control light. No wheels are making noise, so I've no way to figure out what wheel it is. Any way to pull the info from this newer car, or does it have to go to the shop to get codes pulled?

The OBD scanner I used at Advance Auto told me which wheel bearing was giving me fits when I had a broken wire on the hub of my 07 GP.

Like the guys suggested, need to have the vehicle scanned by a tool that can read ABS codes....most scanners/code readers can't.....these are "C" codes....

Re: 2012 Regal - Possible Wheel Bearing

Sorry for the late response. I got lucky and found a code reader on sale that does read ABS codes. Turns out it's the rear left. I've done rear bearings on my old 1999 Regal and it was easy enough to do. Is the 2012 just as easy, or will it be a little more complicated because of the electric parking brake? Hopefully it won't be too bad. Thanks again guys.
