I put my money on a front hub assembly. Changed LH twice and RH once on my 97 Trans Sport @ 200K kms. Scroll down and you'll see more on this.

Do you check the the error code with the OBD2? or is it different for the brakes? My van is a 1998.

Thanks

Yes. You can use a code reader on the OBD or I think you can also jump the diagnostic pin to ground and watch the flashing of the check engine light. Should have no problem finding the code chart on the web.
