The typical sign of a faulty wheel speed sensor is a combination of the BRAKE, ABS, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Brake Assist System (BAS) malfunction indicator lights. Since the JK instrument panel does not display ABS codes, confirm your wheel speed sensor is the issue by heading to the nearest auto parts store with an ABS code reader, or purchasing an OBD II code reader with an ABS system function yourself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div\n        class=\"\n          image-block-outer-wrapper\n          layout-caption-below\n          design-layout-inline\n          combination-animation-site-default\n          individual-animation-site-default\n          individual-text-animation-site-default\n        \"\n        data-test=\"image-block-inline-outer-wrapper\"\n    ><\/p>\n<figure\n            class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"\n            style=\"max-width:1999px;\"\n        ><\/p>\n<div\n              \n              \n              class=\"image-block-wrapper\"\n              data-animation-role=\"image\"\n              \n  \n\n          ><\/p>\n<div class=\"sqs-image-shape-container-element\n              \n          \n        \n              has-aspect-ratio\n            \" style=\"\n                position: relative;\n                \n                  padding-bottom:56.228111267089844%;\n                \n                overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);\n              \"\n              ><\/p>\n<p>                <img data-stretch=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/e1f7b32c-d931-4448-9a01-82e8c99528bb\/pxl_20201122_225403710_1525337b8070bead11c4f5fcb8df01265800f836.jpg\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/e1f7b32c-d931-4448-9a01-82e8c99528bb\/pxl_20201122_225403710_1525337b8070bead11c4f5fcb8df01265800f836.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"1999x1124\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" elementtiming=\"system-image-block\" src=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/e1f7b32c-d931-4448-9a01-82e8c99528bb\/pxl_20201122_225403710_1525337b8070bead11c4f5fcb8df01265800f836.jpg\" width=\"1999\" height=\"1124\" alt=\"\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 58.333333333333336vw, 58.333333333333336vw\" style=\"display:block;object-fit: cover;

Remove factory connector from wheel speed sensor.<\/strong> Using a pick or small flathead driver, pull the red tab away from the wheel hub with one hand, while depressing the black button on the connector with the other hand. Once the red tab is released, you should be able to separate the connector from the wheel speed sensor. If this proves to be difficult, you can remove the sensor first. *<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure\n          class=\"\n            sqs-block-image-figure\n            image-block-outer-wrapper\n            image-block-v2\n            design-layout-card\n            combination-animation-site-default\n            individual-animation-site-default\n            individual-text-animation-site-default\n            image-position-left\n            \n          \"\n          data-scrolled\n          data-test=\"image-block-v2-outer-wrapper\"\n      ><\/p>\n<div class=\"intrinsic\">\n<div\n          \n              class=\"\n                \n                image-inset\"\n              data-animation-role=\"image\"\n              data-description=\"\"\n              \n  \n\n          ><\/p>\n<div class=\"sqs-image-shape-container-element\n              \n                content-fit\n              \n            \" style=\"\n              position: relative;\n              overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);\n              \n            \"><\/p>\n<p>              <img data-stretch=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"499x624\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" elementtiming=\"system-image-block\" src=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg\" width=\"499\" height=\"624\" alt=\"\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 100vw\" style=\"display:block;object-fit: contain;\" onload=\"this.classList.add(&quot;loaded&quot;)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=100w 100w, https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=300w 300w, https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=500w 500w, https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=750w 750w, https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=1000w 1000w, https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=1500w 1500w, https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/622a67f3f0bca242b06e3ae8\/0c7721e6-b10d-44b9-9a8a-bfe41cfb88a0\/Wheel+Speed+Sensor+8mm.jpg?format=2500w 2500w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-loader=\"sqs\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-overlay\" style=\"overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption class=\"image-card-wrapper\" data-width-ratio>\n<div class=\"image-card sqs-dynamic-text-container\">\n<div class=\"image-subtitle-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-subtitle sqs-dynamic-text\"\n                \n  \n><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"><strong>2.
