Hi Could be a wheel speed sensor or lots of other stuff. Need to have car hooked up to scanner and have codes read. This will aid in diagnosis and tell cost of repair. Unfortunatly your car is one year short of OBDII and finding a Tech1 scanner will be the problem. If your car was produced late in 96 maybe OBDII. Look underdash drivers side does ALDL have 16 pins see diagram
