had these codes, then deleted them and still have the front 2 sensors without even driving the car. jacked up the car and i see front pads have been replaced but the abs sensors look old. is this something common on these cars? what are the odds that both are bad or were installed non oem or whatever the code means. i also see some loseness in the suspension maybe a control arm is bad

What to check next

Diagnostic guidance. Suggested checks and possible repairs are separate from the owner's reported results.

Treat this as an owner-reported result, not a reason to replace both sensors or the ABS module on another vehicle. If the concern recurs, record the full ABS codes and compare wheel-speed data while inspecting the relevant sensor circuits using the matching procedure. After repair, have the system checked for returning faults and consistent wheel-speed information.

It looks like you have codes C212A, C0031 and code C0034.

C0031 - left front wheel speed sensor
C0034 - right front wheel speed sensor
C212A - implausible/missing wheel speed signal related to ABS/ESC seeing bad data

Yep, I would check the wiring and if it looks good replace the ABS control module. There is a chance both wheel speed sensors are bad, but it is slight. Let me know what you find.
