ABS light

Just putting this out there for general knowledge. My ABS light came on about 2 months ago. Truck has about 190K on it, I drive about 1500 a week. After researching FTE I came to the conclusion that the issue was a front ABS sensor or front sealed bearing hub. My spedo worked fine from 0 MPH up, so I ruled out the rear VSS. I Pulled both the front hubs to check bearing's for play and to make sure the ABS ring was centered in sensor hole, all was well so I figured it was a sensor. Finally got it by a friend's shop today and the code was for the VSS. I replaced the VSS and light is gone.

From everything I have read on the forum if the VSS is bad the spedo will not work below 15 MPH. Just wanted to let everyone know that is not always the case.

Take care
