Default Speed sensor

I have Check ABS, Check Traction Sys, check active handling lights all come on at once. Diagnoses was front right speed sensor. I replaced right front wheel hub with the built in speed sensor. I am now getting the same lights. When I turn off vehicle, it resets. However, all lights come on after 20-30 minutes of driving again. So, could I have gotten a bad wheel hub (NAPA) or could there be something upstream in the system causing this?
Any help would be appreciated. I have a 2003 C5 with 46k miles on it.
Thanks,
Steve

You need to pull the DTCs and POST them up. You MUST use the C5s built in DTC reading routine and read the DTCs thru the DIC. It will give you the exact issue that you are having.

NOTE!!!!!
You MUST read the DTCs when the issue happens "WITHOUT" turning the ignition OFF and back ON!! Once the issue happens,, Just Press the RESET button on the IPC until all the messages go away and then enter the DTC reading routine.

Post up all the DTCs but we will be concentrating on the EBTCM DTCs It should tell you what error is causing the system to error out.

I seriously doubt that you have a bad HUB/WSS but, you could very well have a bad female WSS Harness Connector pin. Happens ALL THE TIME!!! Very common C5 issue!
