ABS Problems Ford Escape 2001 XLT

When I bought the car I had the abs lite on, I change the axel (where the abs sensor read) because was broke on the left side and my abs lite is on again.
I need to go to the dealer to reset my lite or there is another way to do it, or can be another problem.

Thank you .

The real name for the part that I changed is "ABS Tone Ring Wheel" not axel like I wrote.

On my big Ford and even on my Saturn, I have been able to reset warning lights using my Scangauge, which plugs into the OBD-II to read codes. After some resets I had to run through cycles of startup, warmup, drive, shutdown to make sure code did not come back. Some other forum members have posted that their neighborhood car parts stores have a code reader that can do resets.

good luck
