hello, I just replaced my wheel hub and after driving it a couple of miles, the ABS light came on? The speed sensor was checked and cleaned. What can cause the ABS light on after replacing the wheel hub?

Good morning,

The hub should have come with a new sensor. Did yours come with a new sensor?

Can you get me the code that is set in the system? It could be the sensor itself.

Okay, I need the code that is set to help you.

You can go to a parts store and they will read it for free.
