Post subject:  Replacing ABS wires - How hard?

Hey everyone. I have been showing my abs,bas, and TC lights for the past little bit and now wanna fix it. I stopped by my local dealership and picked up the replacement kit from Jeep. $39 as they are no longer just selling the wires and you have to buy the sensor with it. :( Who has done this before? how hard is it? pictures? advice?

thanks

joe

maybe just make your own wireharness???? i dont know if they are calibrated to the wires too, might just spend the 40 bucks....is it just one wheel?

yea, just make the harness, and if it works, then hey cool, if not then, just buy the harness/sensor.

it is actually super easy. i snapped one of my sensors off when i was doing the lift. you literally take out one screw, pry the sensor out and take off the wire, then you reinstall the new one---pretty straight forward if you are somewhat mechanically inclined. it took about 15 minutes. good luck

I got the new kit. very straight forward, however on the 2007 model it looks like I need to remove the caliper and rotor to get to the sensor plug. :(

oh well...time to get working..:)
