Thread: 98 GTP ABS light and trac off after pad swap

Did my front pads last night, didn't break anything. bleed brakes just a bit ago even though they didn't need it. stopped fine, no pulling yet my abs light came on and my traction is always off, all right after the pad swap. Is this a speed sensor for some odd reason or something else?

probably.

and to think i was going to try and trade it off this weekend. im buying old cars from now on.

They tend to have more serious problems.

Like rot.

Wouldn't be no different than my 98 gtp. Passenger rear rocker has two large eaten through spots. I rather have rust than a car i've had 5 months and has many odd electronic things that don't work right. Can't complain since it was cheap but gets really annoying.

Funny you mention that. From just looking around the wheel i wouldn't notice this but i did find my wire off its clip mount while i was working on it and tucked it back up like it should be. Really good tip to point out! Thanks!

yeah found a broken wire at the back of the connector. Cut it off and had to crimp it but i used sealer on the ends to keep stuff out.
