    ABS, Speedometer issues

    Okay, well to start off, I had all my front control arms replaced both left and right, and to be my luck when I got my car back from the shop they told me my ABS light is on and they needed an hr of diagnostics to see what is going on. Well my car had no problems with my ABS, what could I check just to make sure everything is connected right, or if its simply a sensor? Oh yeah they told me they quick tested the ABS unit and it was working fine. They said they couldn't erase the code as it would come up again. Now my next issues is that about a month ago I tried to get my speedometer replaced(mine was crapping out and LED's were dissapearing) well needless to say when I unplugged it and plugged it back(the other also had burned LED's) it turned on all the lights in the center of the speedometer and made them flash(the lights that tell you if you have a light bulb out, or wiper fluid is out ect.) and now they wont stop flashing. I know its that I unplugged it, how do I fix that? Appreciate any input. I do plan on going back to the shop as they had to remove the ABS to get to the right mount in order to replace the control arms. Thanks

    Sounds like you need a new speed sensor. We have some in stock. Quite possibly one for your car.

    Oops I read it wrong, I thought he pulled the speed sensor and it went haywire on him. Speedometer ftw
