C1226 RF Excessive Wheel Speed Variation

Your Right Front wheel speed sensor is sending erratic signals to your BCM.

Ninety nine percent of the time this is a wiring problem. You most likely disturbed a connector when doing the headers.

See the sticky at the top of this forum by Bill Curlee, go to page 8, post #143 for information on problems with the connectors ... this will take you to page 8 ....

There are two sets of connectors ... one is very close to the sensor (within inches) the other is about 2 to 3 feet down the harness from the first connector as there is a relatively short harness that then connects the sensor to the main wiring loom.
