Default Service ABS & traction control

My ABS and traction control lights are on. I know the simplest thing would be to get the DIC codes. Unfortunately I can't access the DIC it has "locked" up.

I do know that the problem is with the left front ABS because when I brake hard the tire locks up. Could the be a bad ABS sensor?

Also any suggestions on repairing the DIC?

Start by scanning for codes.......most chain auto parts jobbers will do it for free(Autozone,Oreillys etc).......go from there rather than just being a parts changer.

Actually,your abs is not working at all. The wheel locking up either has the best brake bite or the tire with the poorest grip.
