ABS and tracktion control light comes on

Post by rrbnut »

these lights came on a while ago and we flashed the system as no apparent problem with brakes or control;now it came on again. Anyone have an idea what this is caused by? 2002 Tbird
Thanks

Could have a wheel speed sensor problem and or a wheel bearing starting fail. The bearing can pull the sensor out of alignment and this will shut off ABS and Trac Control. The wheel bearing should be making a low howling noise now or in the near future if bad. Good Luck.
