today the abs light and the traction control lights came on. shut the car down, wait 20 minutes, start up and its all off again. drive 200 feet... back on.
jacked the car up once i was at home and the rear wheel bearing is considerably worse than before and there is noise as the wheel turns.
could it be related?
also, what is the 'danger zone' for bad wheel bearings? like I said i've got more play in the wheel than before. i just need to get to work and back for a couple more weeks...
Could be related if your abs sensor or abs wheel is also buggered. But IIRC a code reader won't help you with ABS light.
The last time I had both ABS and TC lights on I had to pay the dealer 100 bucks to tell me what it was (I have a code reader - no codes from the OBDII) ... it ended up being real bad news ... it was the ABS computer on the master brake control valve, and they won't sell you a new computer - you have to buy the whole unit - IIRC correctly they quoted me 1400.00 to fix.
I'm not saying that this is what ails you ... but
