#3869 of 3876 ABS, TCS and SLIP lights by suydam Jun 30, 2008 (9:16 am)
These lights keep coming on. Sometimes if I turn off the ignition, then turn it back on again, they go off and stay off. I took it to the dealer a week ago and they said it was build-up of grime on the rear wheel sensor, so they cleaned it up. A week later I am still having the same problem. They say I might have to replace the rear wheel sensor -- any idea what that should cost?   The car runs just fine so it is rather maddening. Any ideas? What bothers me is that I don't know if these systems are all functioning, but it's a problem with whatever makes the lights show up on the dash, or if the systems really are shut down whenever the lights appear.   I have an '01 GLE that up to now has been extremely trouble-free.
#3870 of 3876 2000 Auto trans problem - goes neutral while driving by swillkill Jul 01, 2008 (3:35 pm)
my 2000 maxima with AT is doing a strange thing. after driving for an hour or so the trans will go neutral while driving and the engine will just rev. this happened a week ago while on the highway. i had to pull over to the side, shut off, let sit for 5 min. start back up and it was ok. it happens on and off. ive been to three auto shops who cannot figure it out.   computer scans show nothing, visual inspection of removed trans oil pan show no signs of damage. my last option is to drop the tranny and pay 700 bucks for this. just wondering if anyone has heard of had this problem?   thanks!
#3871 of 3876 ABS light by caugn Jul 02, 2008 (4:26 am)
I have a 97 Maxima with 182000 miles. I replaced the front CV axles this weekend and now the ABS light is on and won't go off. I disconnected the battery thinking to reset the computer but that didn't work. I'm not aware of any wires or anything that got disconnected but who know. Any thoughts or suggestions of where to look? Replies to this message: just_phil (Jul 02, 2008 11:14 am) caugn (Jul 03, 2008 11:35 am) just_phil (Jul 03, 2008 6:41 pm)

Replying to: caugn (Jul 02, 2008 4:26 am) CV axles are different for ABS vs. non-ABS models. The ABS ones have a ring with teeth on it, which are needed for the speed sensor. My guess is that either the non-ABS axle was used, or the ABS sensor or its wires were damaged during axle installation.

Replying to: just_phil (Jul 02, 2008 11:14 am) Is this ring on the passenger side axle? The new axles didn't have anything like this but the passenger side had a ring on the existing axle that we pulled off and placed on the new. I specifically ordered CV axles for the maxima with ABS.

Replying to: caugn (Jul 03, 2008 11:35 am) No, what you are referring to is a support bearing. The ABS rings should be on each side. Look at the pictures in the link, you can see it in pictures 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The ring is silver-colored, looks like a bicycle sprocket.   click here

Replying to: jackrabbit2 (Jul 05, 2008 2:48 pm) You don't state the mileage on the car. I'm betting you're looking at an overhaul or rebuilt on that trans being that the car is 24 years old.
