The problem is every time i turn the stearing wheel the abs and break light comes on the funny thing is it only flashes on when the steering bottoms out just regular driving it doesnt unless i turn sharp i have new belt and new wheel bearings check all the fluid im lost on this. It doesnt affect the breaks or anything thanks guy any help would be great great

Sounds like one of the three ABS sensors has failed...

its weird i put the wheel bearings in 6 ,omths ago and never had any problem. i just cant figure out why it only does it when i turn sharp right when the stearing bottoms out i checked the plugs and they are both plugged in i didnt see any cuts in the wires. It doesnt affect the breaks any at all im lost

where are the senors at i just seen the wires that run the wheel bearing i just figured it would be doing it all the time. Is it the wire that runs to the wheel bearing is that what i need to replace

now since i have been wiggling the steering back and forth they are staying on im lost now i have no idea what it could be befor it would just come on when i turned the steering wheel hard to either side

i was wondering i just found out my balljoints are going out could that throw something off to cause the abs light to come on
