    Default Need help on 2005 escalade traction active

    has anyone had this issue with these GM SUV'S?
    I have replaced the passenger side hub bearing, due to the sensor being zip tied up
    abs light isnt on or any codes that are coming up.
    just trying to trouble shot it before I replace the driver side hub..
    Thanks in advance

    This a message in the DIC? or are you referring to low speed abs activation?

    lean towards the drivers side, but first, look at the wheel speed data, what is likely, is that since the one side is new, and the other side is old, the newer one has higher s=resolution at low speed(example, new one reads down as low as ~3mph, then stops reading/drops to 0mph, old one only reads down to ~7mph, then drops to 0, so the ECM is thinking that wheel locked up

    Old one is reading 3mph when this is happening. Thanks for the help

    Attach a scan tool and drive slowly watching the speed of each sensor.... it will be obvious which one is not working correctly....and yes it common.
    Buy a higher quality hub bearing assembly or you will be doing it again soon.
