Replaced driver side front wheel bearing, ABS light is now on when starting engine, reverse out of the driveway and take off and in a split second, traction control light comes on and lose hill assist when turning into a neighbiors driveway to return home. No dash readings as all when traction control light comes on, no speedometer reading either. Lose some steerling wheel power as well. Park the car back in driveway and turn her back on and the ABS only comes back on until I reverse and drive away again.

Good afternoon,

There is a fault code stored for the ABS and traction control issue. I need that code to help narrow the area of failure.

A parts store can read it for you for free. Once I know the code, I can help.

Code readers will not read the ABS system. You need someone with a more quality scan tool to read the codes.

Like I said, you can go to a parts store and they can read it for free.
