ABS light is on I change the sensor, wheel bearing , harnessed light stayed out ten minutes and came back on. A friend of mine was telling me that the aftermarket sensor sometime or no good the $15.00 ones. Is that true? Should I get it from a Pacific person or company. Thank you, Kenny

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

Even if the sensor was not an OEM part, it should last longer than ten minutes. Recheck the wiring connector to make sure it is not loose or corroded. Also, make sure the relutor ring is clean and is not being blocked by dirt or debris.

Let me know what you find. Also, if you have determined a code related to this issue, let me know what that is also.

Take care,
Joe
