This lady has got it all over most of the "Men" that are basically trying to sell some gimmick on KZbin. She is a great teacher, and explains things in plain English without the confusion. Thanks for the video!

[@HotRod-wv4vm]

I had an ABS light come pop up on my 86 BMW 325 es. I was fortunate enough to run into a BMW mechanic who was doing side work ln the street and he pointed me to the left front wheel bearing area. I also remember having no breaking issues and he remarked that on my particular model it was a common problem. I unscrewed the old one put in a new one and the ABS light went off. I am no mechanic but always thought it to be a good idea to get a service manual for every car I had. Now with KZbin you really don’t need to buy one. Thank you for the video.

[@Anytime12345-o]

My ABS light went on and I thought it was the ABS system. It turns out to be the wheel bearing that was worn out. When ABS light turns on first check the wheel bearings, it will save you a lot of money.

[@blass5506]

I love this lady she is very talent and smart learning a lot from her

[@DanTriggerhappyGames]

Absolutely love the detail you go into, it's always a relief when your video pops up for an issue I'm trying to solve, much appreciated!

[@manarahmad7342]

Incredible explanation. Her knowledge & explanation was well put together

[@keenowl1410]

She's incredibly talented

[@lanna.gardner]

Can a wheel bearing cause the “BRAKE”, ABS, and traction control light to all come on at once?

[@Chris-ez2zi]

This video was very helpful. I’m actually dealing with an issue like this at my job and I replaced the wheel speed sensor because there wasn’t one on there and then come to find out it’s the eccentric ring that was broken. This video was very helpful.

[@1AAuto]

+Chris Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c

[@daleostrowski5351]

Her explanation is very understandable and helpful.

[@dionysus2006]

Great job ! The speed sensor returns a voltage which is proportional to the wheel speed and the voltages from all the wheels have to be in the same range. It uses a magnetic circuit where there is a magnet inside a coil and when the reluctance wheel rotates it deforms the magnetic field with each tooth of the gear (not a gear but may look like one) This causes a back and forth current in the coil which is read as an AC voltage that is proportional to wheel speed. Pretty cool !!

[@1jw298]

My abs light was due to bad bearings. Put a new hub on and it was good to go.

[@jslack8973]

2:48 I didn’t know this but wondered if it had another name. Some people will throw out names of things knowing it’s called something else but don’t have the patience to give you the other name while teaching. Anyway I’m super glad she just taught this

[@williadawilliams]

This was the THE MOST simplified, thorough explanation of a repair or issue of a vehicle I have ever seen. Nicely done. I am going to subscribe because of your video. I'm trying repair a 2010 prius with the abs light on. I don't want to a mechanic or dealer if I can do it myself. I know they are going to try to up charge me. If you can help me, I would appreciate it. Thank you.

[@azzakwan]

I'm hoping to see more toyota camry's troubleshooting from her. Her previous videos related to camry/aurion were really helpful.

[@Johnnytotal]

Over here in Sweden/Stockholm there are just a few workshops that can work on american cars. Mine’s a Cadillac CTS and I have to wait for a month to get a time to service it. This video helped me and cleared things up for me. Great job!

[@egx161]

Sue is truly the best! Very knowledgeable and well spoken clear information. Thank you!! Now Give Sue a well deserved raise. $$$

[@chrisalarcon7013]

Why don’t the ABS tell the ECU which tire is affected as well? We are living like fred flintstone still

[@coronaphone710]

I love your understanding of cars. A real mechanic.

[@kennethhudson8013]

Sue! Great video MY friend has this problem on his 2008 F150

[@gregoryforrest8970]

I have and 05 Saturn Relay/Chevy Uplander a few years ago a mechanic replaced my CV joints and wheel bearing and hub, and when I drove home this ABS light was on, wasn't on before the new wheel bearings. Anyhow I watched the Scotty Kilmore channel about it he says if the ABS light is on means your ABS system won't operate but your vehicle will still stop. It's been on for over two years, last week I had my front brakes and rotors serviced by a mechanic he replaced all of the brakes and just mentioned that my ABS wasn't operating but didn't suggest me to bother repair it. To date vehicle is riding ok the light is on but seems to stop. If it's just and expensive sensor then maybe I will check the wrecker yard to see if I can get a few there.

[@ID10TDriving]

Thank you for this!! Who knew a bad bearing could cause so many problems!

[@mplscarsales6652]

Great job keep them videos coming not many talk about abs issues like this great topic

[@elishaduncan2479]

Great review it's very interesting to hear that information about the abs lights thanks it was helpful.

[@williamkrusejr1846]

Thank you for all the information on this job I need to fix this on my 2004 mini cooper , you went into very good detail. I now have to find out what is at fault

[@chriseddings6168]

Nice job on that video. Clear and concise

[@joeroldanramirez9067]

Amazing explanation. I wish some of my professors had that ability to relate information

[@zolanizwangendabamkandla9929]

Yes I have an abs light on my car dash but couldn't find the actual fault I even tried to change my break pads and the discs are still new, thanks I will now try your tip

[@marcorojas771]

Thanks guys again for keep us teaching god blessed to all your team

[@marcorojas771]

Thanks again guys for keep us teaching and safe and blessed all your team i very proud to watch your videos and i keep learning so much and I feel a of your teams again thanks so much keep safe and blessed

[@edwardirungu7715]

Wonderful love it, that information is important to me next time i see ABS light I will consult a mechanic.

[@nlarralde]

1A is always super helpful. Thank you.

[@klappahsunion8089]

I Seen that sway bar link bushings cracking ! Scared me 😂

[@garrickgarrido4803]

Hey Sue, first time I see you using an impact to pull a wheel on video! Possibly because the vehicle is already up on the lift! 💪👍

[@BeinnMac]

Great information for people. This helps explains the problems with ABS noticeable

[@Bamaboompa]

Thanks for a thorough video without a lot of garbage. I recently got a 2002 Ford F-150 and now the ABS light comes on intermittently. I did check the 1A website - only thing you offer is the sensors. ALSO note - the odometer intermittently goes in and out. Guy I got the truck from says that happened with him as well, so THAT'S not a new situation. I haven't paid close enough attention if the two things happen at the same time, but I don't think so. Any suggestions?

[@mhow7024]

My escalade had this issue and my wheel caught on fire in the midle of no where in I94- North fen Dakota!!! it was - 20 outside and pitch black dark. I literally thought i was going to die while waiting or the tow guy. I paid 2 thoousand for the entire break system

[@Maxwel86]

Excellent! Information and explanations. Only one helpful tip was not discussed could lead to another discovery and that's tire wear. During the abs check as she described, once you notice movement on that tire indicating a losing bearing, more often than not, a "tell tell" sign will be uneven tire wear. Look for it.

[@1AAuto]

+@Maxwel86 Thanks for the feedback!

[@jlrockafella]

If your brakes work fine, 1st thing is to check your ground straps. GM/Chevy have 4 and if it's 4x4 they have 5 ground wires

[@MrSwaggaMatic]

🎉excellent explanation . She's amazing . Yall should let her do more videos ❤.

[@1AAuto]

+MrSwaggaMatic Thanks for the feedback!

[@kneokneo5792]

Such a good teacher. Thank you😊

[@angelinavojinovic4552]

I am dealing with ABS light on my dashboard, and I changed all 4 ABS sensors. One of the rear wheel bearings was the worst from the other ones. If my ABS light doesn't go away after I reset my truck, I will definitely look into the wheel bearings because they look pretty beaten up. Thank you for this incredibly informative video 😊.

[@Jeg_er_tyk_og_grim]

My mom came to me because her abs would activate every now and then when she would brake, I took a look at it and there was rust jacking under the speed sensor. Cleaned it up and put some paint over the bare surface, problem solved (02 trailblazer)

[@bryanwillis7726]

I just had new tires put on my truck and abs/stablitrack light was on immediately after turning on truck. I told guy that put tires on and he says oh something must be in hub causing it. I finally got around to searching and found the crimped wire he hit while putting wheel on. Newer truck and the wire runs over upper ball joint so I can see how it could happen. They are at least paying for new sensor but not my time to install

[@BCT-fx7wg]

Thank you very much. alot I need to repair. now I know. Problems been there for 3 months and ABS light came on bout 2 weeks ago. Its my hub and I think that its doing exactly that to the brake pads and rotar etc. SMH. I got laid off about a week after I damaged that front right hub bearing.

[@peterhobbs4780]

Very complete and informative video. Highly recommended.

[@myooak77]

Thank you so much for clearing explanations for this.

[@carlmesser7238]

Yes most of the time it the quick disconnect to the hub assembly or also known as wheel bearing but it's really called hub assembly

[@timwiechmann1519]

This happened to my 2015 ram 1500 on both sides of the front wheels at different times had to replace the front wheel hub bearing to get it fixed

[@jonyjonsy]

8:00 Wouldn't the side that locks up (loses traction) move faster than the one that pulses (has traction). Wouldn't the car skid away from the tyre with an abs fault instead of into it as the presenter suggests?

[@artest7]

No ABS parts (speed sensor) come up to my 2006 Lincoln Navigator.

[@josepablo6309]

That's the video I was looking for ,OK I'm on the right track iam to replace bearing hub, one question that's the bad abs sensor activate esc service light??

[@rondoe8364]

That was definitely need to know info thanks again as usual for the info

[@stevebutler812]

I wrongly thought ❤ if the ABS light is “on” then the ABS isn’t working. Apparently it can continue to operate. In CA a “CEL” is an auto smog Fail, but ABS isn’t required.

[@Auscilius]

Shes good at helping you understand things!

[@blackenigma1054]

Your such a good teacher!….Thanks!👍🏿😂

[@john-vv1ln]

I have a 2018 Subaru Forester and the ABS, Traction Control and Hill Assist light all come on when I first start the engine. After running for 10 minutes and re-starting the engine the lights go off. After checking off a list of possible causes, still have not found what the problem is. I could cost $1000 just to find what the cause is. Like I said computerized cars are an endless money pit of repair bills.

[@leomolina9618]

Super, Well-Done explanation!!! Thanks much... much enjoyed.

[@Elcapulove]

Good afternoon family and good health to everyone especially MENTAL. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@punditgi]

Awesome channel! ❤😊

[@ginozammito927]

Excellently explained, really helpful video.

[@user-tx9gs5ef8o]

I’m gonna try this on my 2018 CRV. Only the ABS light came on because all the dashboard light already disappeared after replacing my old battery with new one by AAA. The technician said all the light will disappear after a mile of driving. It did except the ABS. Wish me luck.

[@houstonbrown3450]

Amazing demonstration,

[@samanthaspinale1304]

Wooow I just realized what the issue is with my Burban and why the back tire sometimes sounds like my brakes are sticking.i think my back wheel bearing is going out but not completely out

[@flank84]

I had an ABS issue that didnt cause the light to come on. My steering wheel would turn to the left when braking and I had squealing brakes. I pulled the fuse and the issue went away. It ended up being a very easy fix and was simply a gunked up ABS sensor.

[@1AAuto]

+@flank84 Thanks for the feedback!

[@NANA-gw7ol]

When the ABS sensor fail,will starting the ABS sysytem working and reduce brake distance? Especial on downhill.

[@angiealdava8454]

I changed my wheel bearing. Afterwards the traction, ABS and emergency brake light and service stabilitrak screen came on. Changed the abs sensor. Lights are still on. Throws C056D-00 code for EcBM module. Has to be related to changing that wheel bearing but can’t figure it out

[@kennybo-iy2ed]

very nicely explained, well done you.

[@guiasdealturas245]

Such a nice and beautiful explanation

[@GotGame333]

I’m very impressed! Thank YOU!

[@r.k.bansal1458]

I drive a 2013 Toyota Camry LE. It has about 103K miles on it. I had got front brakes replaced about 2 years ago. I have changed myself rear brake pads recently. It seems that the brakes work fine and I do not get ABS light on, except that when I apply brakes I notice vibrations in the car that feel like jerks as the car slows down. Interestingly, I do not feel any vibrations in the steering wheel during normal driving and when applying brakes. Can you please suggest what could be the reason? Thanks. 🙏

[@farmfitnesspham4913]

I buy all my part for my truck from them and it always spot on the problem

[@wellesleylawrance2038]

I have flashing ABS light , After replacing rear hubs ,and speed sensor on 209Dodge journey 2.4L engine

[@davidsoudek]

Some vehicles have the sensor on the dust shield behind the wheel bearing… (S10)

What an excellent discourse! thank you!

[@MetoTautea]

Thank you for your helpful and generous ideas it helps a lot👍💪💯🙏

Perfect timing, mines just started doing this, after I just cleaned mines. My plug is all shattered into crumbs.

[@NDLAP66]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you get five stars great video

[@datadata-di1lp]

When replaced the failed ABS sensor, any extra work needs to be done? Need any calibration by dealers?

[@jorgemora7190]

Very good job l Learne from this lady thanks

[@DJust_Me]

Great video. Thanks for your time to explain it.

[@minnesotatwo]

Will you please put a link into a code reader you recommend? Thanks!

[@meatpuppet7712]

My ABS light was on and after changing all breaks and rotors and speed sensors I found the problem was the magnetic disk in the bearings that reads the speed sensors where broken and corroded away. I changed my bearings, and the ABS light went out.

[@8avexp]

I've heard that strobe-style LED bulbs can cause the ABS light to come on if they're being used as brake lights.

[@997miko]

perfect video thank You for sharing Your exp with us :*

[@samhardel4004]

I just had a wheel speed sensor fixed still have the abs light on my 09 Silverado

[@wesleyboi2000]

I replaced my wheel bearing, but the warnings still come up, and O'Reilly didnt come up with any issues in their scan, but my brakes are stuttering at times when the lights come on. It's not often, but it's sketchy when it happens

[@fishburitto3914]

Hi how are you, assuming there is continuity from the sensor to the abs computer and live data shows 0 when the vehicle is in motion and the wheel does not rock indicating a bad bearing should I assume the computer went bad?

[@fernandovasquez7498]

Great explanation she real good at it great job🎉

[@savoielvis1]

Now i understand more...thank you so much !!!!

[@Daybreaker16]

What could cause ABS to turn on when turn steering wheel on the left? I replaced the clockspring still same issue 2009 infiniti fx50. My traction control light all comes on only when you trurn the steering left

[@FreshMoney-x6v]

I love your work

[@deborahmw777]

We just had our breaks replaced only 3 weeks ago and our abs light went on and blinked, then solid then blinked then went off.

[@jasons6573]

This is a very good video. Thanks! 👍

[@davycrockett4395]

Hell all 4 of my sensors are shot. I went to reset them thought maybe that was the prob and it wouldnt process after the first instruction. Its been over a year now i chamged the breaks tried about everything. Ive always been told speed sensors arent necessary. Glad to know i better get them. Also, i have a lot of break dust on the front wheels is that temhe issue?

[@TonyJohnson-t6c]

I just bought this 2004 Suburban and I noticed the brake/ABS plug underneath the front passenger seat was unplugged. Soon as I plugged it up the 2 front brakes passenger /driver started dragging. I wonder if the previous owner unplugged the plug for that reason. To release the brakes I opened up the bleeder screw. And when I changed the brakes both passenger/driver side brakes was to the metal. Can having the ABS plugged up cause the brakes to drag? Leaving it unplugged will it help stop the dragging?

[@mrsaiyan7342]

That grinding sound you mentioned here, does that come on instantly when you're driving or when you reach a certain speed? My car is having this weird sound, abs VSC light came on but now it's off and I mostly hear it when I press on the gas pedal and when it reaches speeds 30 mph and over. but also hear it just cruising. 2010 Toyota Corolla LE 1.8
