abs, traction control,active handling

I took a ride this morning and service traction system,service anti lock brakes and service active handling system came up in the DIC. I have a gm scanner and it said right rear wheel sensor circut C0050. Any body ever have this where it was just the sensor? I do have the telescopic wheel and I will check that Monday for a clip.

I lit up the tires did some donuts real hard right and left and knock on wood no codes. Maybe I got lucky, worst case I'll pull the tire and check the sensor for correct ohms and if I have to I can change the bearing/sensor. It looks easy enough.

I can't see how a no start is related. Get a gm icarsoft i900 scanner $120 and it will give all the codes.abs,srs,trany,engine. That's how I found my prob.

Does that scanner tell you what the codes mean as well or does it just give you the codes like a universal scanner? I need to scan my car for a service active handling message and other issues as well and wanted to buy a scanner. Thanks for your input!

Here is a link to a thread I had a while back. My code was C0035. Turned out to be the wheel speed sensor. They replaced the entire hub. Part was $300 or so. 1 hour of labor.

Hope that helps.

Hope this helps.

There are several common things to check when getting this error, they could do a sticky on it... One of those things is the battery, time to replace yours my friend.

Wheel sensors are magnetic pickup types of sensors. GM really did us a disservice by assembling the sensor as an unremovable/unserviceable unit. Sensors can get crudded up and cause intermittent failures/dropouts, and or eventually fail completely. I've been able to take out and clean the tips of sensors on other cars and completely restore the sensor to service. Cannot do that here.
