After a hit to the right front side of the car, the ABS, traction, engine lights are on, and the diagnostic is reading changes in 3 out of the 4 wheels except one which is stuck on a fixed number. I changed the wheel sensor and still. What could it be?

Good morning,

Did you change the sensor on the wheel that has damage?

I attached the procedure below for you to view.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I replaced the sensor and still having the same issue. Just the hit broke the ABS unit plug so the mechanic wired the sensor directly to the unit cable.

That was not a good idea at all. The wires are so thin that joining them is very difficult.

Can you give me the code that was set?
