nipper Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 most popular reason is a dirty or malfunctioning wheel speed sensor nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericem Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Ya mine came on because the idiots who changed my front bearing wacked the sensor, and i had to pay 300 for a new one. Dam *******! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB99W Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 are the sensors left and right? front and rear? or all interchangeable?? At least on my '99 OB, they're all different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 are the sensors left and right? front and rear? or all interchangeable?? in all honesty i dont know. https://www.subarugenuineparts.com/oe_parts_cat.html look there and see what part number comes up. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 that would make sense, left and right handed, and different front and rear since the disc & knuckles are different. At least on my '99 OB, they're all different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob98obsport Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Still trying to figure something simular out. After going 100 miles or so in a day my ABS light comes on, and the ABS doent work. ( I tried it on a gravel road on my way home) but I shut off the car turn it back on and no light and working ABS, could this be a sensor also? mmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I THINK also that system is very sensitive to low voltage from the alternator and is the first system to display odd behavior if one/some rectifiers burnout in the alt. carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
