I have my ABS light on, it's been on for a while so I thought I'd get an OBD scan. The scan came up with the result Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Failure. So I replaced it, and the light is still on and refuses to clear (OBD scan reveals the same code LF sensor failure), if I clear it it comes back before I even leave my driveway (6 feet, if even that). The ABS computer does not respond when necessary either. Do I check the reluctor ring? Do I check the connections? Do I check the ABS computer?

Hello,

This could be a wiring issue along with other components.
What code number did you get? Was it number 13/14?

The best course of action would be taking a step-by-step approach and find the issue.

I have attached the troubleshooting steps for the sensor fault code below.
Follow these steps and that can help you determine the issue.

Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
