    Hey guys,
    I have a 2001 GP SE. My ABS light has come on every time I drive the car. I found the problem. It's the sensor on the right front wheel bearing. The wire broke off at the sensor. There isn't enough wire to solder a new piece of wire because it broke off to close to the sensor. I live in FL. now so I never use the ABS. Only time I did was in the snow up in MN. I wanted to pull the fuse but the ABS fuse is a combo A/C clutch and ABS ignition fuse. How can I disable the ABS so that the light goes out? P.S I had the bearing replaced about 2.5 years ago w/ an AC Delco bearing so I'd rather not replace it again.

    IIRC there's a way to replace the speed sensor without replacing the entire hub and bearing assembly, but I can't recall exactly how that would work.

    The speed sensor is an integral part of the hub IIRC. Maybe someone else can chime in. I think it's made not to be replaceable.

    its a non serviceable hub, sensor dont come out.

    no way to turn off the light, other then fix it, or take the bulb out.

    Thanks Scottydoggs. I think I'll just take the bulb out. Iv'e taken the cluster out before so I'm well versed on that.
