2001 Sierra Brakes Lock up after replacing Wheel hub assembly HELP!

Hello all,

I replaced the the left front wheel bearing assembly on my nephew's 2001 Sierra 4.8 liter; the procedure was very simple and found no problems taking out the old one a installing the new part. I doubled checked my work and everything is where is supposed to go, including reconnecting the ABS wire.

The problem started the day after; the brakes locked up each time when coming to a stop, they would somewhat unlock by depressing the pedal an pressing on it again. I asked him to disconnect the negative battery cable for at least an hour and then reconnect it. My nephew took it for a test drive and now tells me the problem only happens at the first stop, no problem after that.

I would like to help him fix this problem asap since he is leaving for college this Friday.

Cheers,

Jorge
