Default Re: ABS ESP/BAS light won't turn off

Ive never changed my Vehicle Speed Sensor on the transmission but another posted, "The speed sensor is mounted on the electrical plate located just above the sump pan. Remove the pan, remove the plate and replace the sensor if required." Maybe others can confirm this. [/QUOTE]

Well sounds like its gonna be a pain to try to get under there but ill start there and if that doesn't work ill try some other ideas. Thank you[/QUOTE]

Unless you can SAFELY lift the car to work under it and support it I wouldn't screw around with it... Take it to a shop. There's lots of other things on these cars you can work safely on without putting yourself in danger and save piles of $. There's no way you'll get under there without lifting it and if it comes down on top of you you're gonna have hospital bills that break the bank at best or end up dead at worst. There's minimal clearance under these cars. I personally won't go under one without proper equipment and back-ups in place to do so. Don't trust your life to some hydraulic jacks and the parking break (or a cheap set of ramps for that matter). Had a friend who was working on a Ford Explorer that has lotsa clearance and it rolled back off the ramps as he was under it.. He scrambled but still got a little squished under there as the weight came down and compressed the springs and shocks. He wasn't feeling well for quite a while. I don't know if didn't set the parking break and block the rear tires or what happened but it wasn't good.
