Morning, Today I hit a pothole on my dirt road with my passenger side front wheel. At that moment, both the "Trac off" and "Anti-Lock" lights came on and are staying on. What the hell did I do now? |

it may be the wheel speed sensor that is in the bearing/hub assembly. with the jarring, it may have come unplugged or damaged |

You will need to replace that wheel bearing. Not a terrible job. I recommend Timken as the replacement. I had this same issue with my car but with the rear driver wheel. |

99% sure you'll end up with a wiring issue, not a hub replacement. |

I have had a bad wheel bearing for a while now (same wheel that hit pot hole). I'll have to replace them soon. Hopefully this issue goes away and I don't have a wiring issue... |

I’m the type of person who likes to know the “whys” when something fails. So this is what happened over the week. On Monday, trac off and anti-lock lights still on, I pulled into gas station. Pumped my fuel and started the car. Trac off and anti-lock lights were off! As I pulled out of station they both came back on. Then today, I did same thing. I pumped fuel, started car and they both were off! As I pulled out they came on! Is it possible the weight from the fuel is triggering something in the rear? |

Get your codes scanned before even thinking about trying to guess what is going on. |

Will there still be codes? if you have body codes, that doesn't light the cel. CEL is primarily for emissions. plus, the scan will tell you which wheel is bad - I would do the bearing and see if its the issue - needs to be done anyway. |

A Tech2 scanner will find your culprit without firing the parts cannon at the car. |

Ok so I replaced both front wheel bearings. Passenger side wires were cut. However....I still have Trac and antilock lights on. Do they need to be cleared with scan tool? |

Did you fix the wiring? The lights don't need a reset. |

I'm at a loss. Wondering if I should turn key to run position, then pull wheels off and mess with connectors to see if I can get a connection by trying to get dash lights to go off. |

Get an ABS scantool on there and quit guessing. |

I wish I could afford that. |

One thing I didn't do yet was check the rear connectors. If it ever stops raining here I'll try that. |

Check around. Some Advance Auto, and Autozones have ABS scanners that they can use to scan your car. |

you try to disconnect the battery. maybe it'll reset. does the trac control work?easy to test. put some sand in a park lot and see if abs works also - maybe the light is funky |

OK its the right front wheel speed sensor. I just had it scanned. What do I start first? Is that passenger side? |
