There weren't any codes that came up and I decided to go to a local repair shop and they connected the ABS scanner up and found the Right Front speed sensor has a bad connector. They quoted me for a new wheel hub and jumper cable (as the old one had been cut and I spliced it back together) for $475 total.
$60.00 Cable
$160.00 Wheel Speed Sensor Hub
$187.00 Labor for installation.
I was thinking of installing it myself, any opinion?
