wheel hub issues?

[bigdaddyD]

after doing some searching i think i am having an issue with a wheel hub, I have the SVS, Anti-Lock, and the trac-off light on. Just wondering if thats what you guys think, also how would i tell which one it is?

New speed sensor..... and im pretty sure you hook up a code reader and it will tell you which wheel it is....

I took it to autozone to have them scan but they said their scanner could not pick up any codes and that they dont have one that can read SVS codes.

[bigdaddyD]

could it be the rotars? they feel like they are possible warping?

bad rotors wouldnt make those 3 lights go off...... but i know when those lights come on that means its the speed sensor. Get it checked out by a TRUSTED mechanic

[bigdaddyD]

what does a speed sensor generaly run? is there an aftermarket sensor that i should look at to replace the oem or does it matter?

[bigdaddyD]

can any one provide some more info on the speed sensor?

the sensor is built into the actual wheel hub and you have to replace the whole thing, timkens run for about 100-140$

FINALLY someone responds! I wasnt aware that it was built into the hub. What would explain why the studs on my front right wheel are a lot shorter than my other ones:(

Lol that happens to me. But only once in a while. Like if I shift from reverse to drive without completely stopping. or I take off the second I shift. but if I retart the car it's fine :lol:

unfortunatley, that's just an upcoming sign.
