    Plug old hub in with the connector to confirm possible bad hub, or does it have to move to trip the code.

    Thanks, I'll do that, thought of it just prior to your reply. I have a second (new hub) too, so if bad ill just return it. Will totally sux if I screwed wiring shouldn't have though, was easy taking it apart and back in. Too easy and now the GP Gremilns are out to get me.

    ----------

    Ok, edit...

    Plugged old hub in, no light, so bad new hub out of the box!


    Note to self... When there's a plug to connect, check it first before busting your ass taking things apart and wasting time. Lol

    Also, will be checking 2nd hub prior to install. And I bought the Moog's cause 3 year warranty!

    Oh those gremlins!

    Arn't Timken made in China now (like everything else)? I know they use to be good but I haven't heard anything good lately.

    Moog and Timken are the same thing. I've got Moogs on 3 corners of my car and have zero issue.

    This is false, moog is a toss up of being manufactured in the us and in china. Timken is manufactured in korea. Timken is a higher quality bearing period.
