1 Brake Antilock Wheel Speed Sensor problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2009

In February, 2009 I noted that the abs and e-brake warning lamps would illuminate when driving. Computer code analysis reflected the need to replace the driver's side wheel speed sensor. I replaced the sensor. The lights continue to illuminate each time the vehicle is driven. Also, the interior lights flash randomly and are very distractive. I have turned off the interior light switch to eliminate this problem.
