All lights on the dash of course, have a code 511700, is it usually the sensor? I scanned it and drove, and it is not reading, the others are. Also, the voltage is available on all 4.

Yes, I would replace the wheel speed sensor, whichever one the code is telling you too, we don't have this code in the states, so it won't tell us which one it is, but here are instructions to replace the right rear in the diagrams below. Check out the diagrams (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
