Replying to: mcg24 (Jul 01, 2008 5:45 am) HAVE A 2001 GMC JIMMY 4X4 THE BRAKE LIGHT AND THE ABS LIGHT COMES ON SOMETIMES. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES AT ALL THE VEHICLE STOPS LIKE NORMAL. I CHECKED THE FLUID IT FULL. I'M THINKING IT MAY BE A ABS SENSOR GOING OUT OR I KNOW IN SOME VEHICLE THESE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE SPEED SENSOR GOES OUT. CAN THIS BE CHECKED WITH THE LIGHTS NOT BEING ON ALL THE TIME.

My 2001 Tahoe LE has brake and ABS dash lights on. Gotta get the thing state (TX) inspected asap. Also, radio speakers quit speaking. Are the two problems, ABS and speakers, related?

Replying to: rbonham44 (Apr 27, 2008 6:31 pm) Had the same issue sort of, found a service bulletin from Chevy ... there is a plate on the wheel hub between the sensor and the hub, rust builds up under the plate and raises the sensor too high .... I disassembled, removed the sensor, scraped out the rust (becareful to not get loose rust in the hub) and the problem disappeared...
