Default Re: Abs and traction control problem

I brought my car to the dealer 10 times for this problem and they can not resolve it. Does anybody have the same problem? I'm having the Abs light come on and traction control when this happens the computer says to service my abs and traction control. They have replaced both sides left and right wheel sensors, both pig tail connectors, and trouble shooted plug in connections. the codes I get says it's the wheel sensors and they have both been replaced. They replaced the main modular for the system. They can't fix my problem any suggestions.

Thanks,

Have they checked or replaced the steering column sensor?

That's what went bad in mine... no codes showed up...

That being said, why don't you ask your local folks and see if there is another service dept. you can take your car to... it's obvious the place you go to now doesn't know what they are doing if they just keep playing the guessing game to find the problem...

My steering sensor has been replaced and this is the 2nd dealership that I've been to. The first one could not resolve the problem and the 2nd one is supposed to be better on corvettes than the first.
Please help if anyone has heard of this. It sets a code everytime this happens.

I just replaced my battery with a brand new one and new cables going to it. I don't know exactly what codes they are, but I can find out.
Somebody has to know what's going on. Please help.

Did yours ever get resolved? If so, what was the solution and what year is your car? I have a 99 Nassau Blue.
