    start driving the car the abs light and tcs light comes on, i stop the car the lights go out. scanned the car pulled right front wheel speed sensor.

    checked the cable was firmly connected and looked good no cuts or nicks,

    could ohm test it... Put an ohm tester on the two terminals... then rotate the wheel... if the numbers don't do anything probably the hub/sensor. If they change with the rotation go to the next plug and check there... 9 times out of 10 it is the hub though.

    I had an Aurora with this problem. Ended up being the ABS wire. I bought a wire, cut into it and attached it and no problems afterwards. However, the wires in the hub can get bad when too much heat hits them. Had a car with a stuck caliper and was heating up the hub. Wires overheated and went bad and ended up having to replace the bearing because the wires went bad.
