Need Some Help

[kevin2012]

So I Had the Anti-lock light come on and traction control went off-line, and i figured it was because of aging brake's so I ended up replacing the rear brake calipers and brake pads, then after bleeding the system, I went out to test drive but after a couple minutes of driving the anti-lock light came back on and trac, off-line, is there a way to reset the abs/traction or did i miss something

Thanks!

You have a bad wheel speed sensor or one that's very dirty. Which one? I wouldn't know but maybe some recent work has been done on one of the wheels and it ended up being broke but they can just go bad.

Might be crowded with metal shavings or has gotten too close to the reluctor ring and hit it (strangely enough I've seen it)

I don't recall if our cars have press-on/press-off reluctor rings or not, but a common issue is rust builds up underneath them and they crack in half, spin around on the hub or shaft, and cause inconsistent readings. Not to mention the bigger gap between the two high spots where its cracked, causing bad readings. Had that happen on my Mom's '08 Ford Escape.

abs

I changed front end parts and used moog. These you can grease, and I do. TOOOO much grease, and it got all over sprocket and sensors. The sensors have 2 metal strips on each side that the grease had baked itself to. I scraped one off with a razor blade, and measures with a meter same as a new one. Spray cleaners would'nt work.
