Default Wheel speed sensor

Hi all,
Anyone know where this is located? I think I might have one out as I'm getting some warning lights on the display. Thanks

Steve

You have a wheel speed sensor at each one of your wheels. They are located between the steering knuckle and brake rotor at each wheel.

Hope that helps you ......Oskee

The wheel speed sensor is located inside the wheel bearing assembly. The connectors are located behind the rotor. Hopefully, whatever problem you are having is not located in that wheel bearing because they cost $650 to replace. :(

I'm getting mine replaced by the dealer as we speak. I was getting a C1226 error code. Is that what you are getting?

I have a few more pics up at http://home.hawaii.rr.com/sswim/Z06
It was already converted when I bought the car at the dealership, so I'm not sure who did the conversion, but they used all factory GM parts, and it looks and acts just like a regular C5 Vert.
