from what people have had problems with check the passenger one (I have replaced mine twice, drivers once) if you can do brakes you can do a hub, pull the brakes off, pull the nut for the axle, and the 3 bolts on the back side

What would happen if I just let it be till say... June or July? Would it harm anything in my car? The only difference besides the lights that I notice is the steering tightens up a little only when the lights come on.
So you are pretty sure its a hub assembly? - I would still feel a lot more confident with a write-up... I'm a newb. If anyone could direct me to one, that would be great. Thanks so far archemedes!
Well if the bearing is bad, your wheel MAY eventualy fall off, but if it is just a sensor, no problems should occur(other than not having TC and ABS)
To easily check the bearing, lif the car and grab the tire top and bottom, work it back and forth a good bearing should have no play, and a bad one will have play![]()
Well I feel pretty stupid.... today I went out to check the WSS... they were kind of loose and very very wet. I simply re-connected them and tried to clean them up as much as I could. I took the car out for a country road spin up to about 75 mph with some aggressive driving - lights never came on.
I'm guessing it must of been a combination of the loose connections and heavy rains last night? If the lights come on again, I might have to replace the hub assembly, but I'll wait it out as long as I can!
Thanks everyone
On our cars, if a WSS (wheel speed sensor) is bad, the entire hub needs to be replaced.
Not hard. Took me about 45 minutes last time. But would probably take someone on the average of 1.5 hours.
