After most front suspension parts replaced I'm getting ABS Light & Stabilitrack lights on now.

Mechanic says it's the front right tire sensor.

Any ideas?PXL_20220317_231149649.jpg

abs sensor? tire sensor's do not trigger abs lights
check the harness connection and/or swap left & right abs sensors to confirm problem follows sensor or if it is the hub

Going to replace both front wheel speed sensors. Since this started immediately after all front suspension parts were replaced I'm relatively confident it will fix the issue. The mechanic has a high end code reader and kept going to the right front tire saying it was the code and that when he'd reset it, it would come right back on. So, here we go.

I'm almost positive that it is not a wheel sensor failure. That is simply too much of a coincidence.

Your issue is most likely an electrical connection issue with one of the two front wire connectors going to the wheel speed sensors. They most likely got disturbed, when you made the replacement. Myself and another member here replaced all 4 of our suspension dampers, and we both got the same dash error. Turned out that we both inadvertently disconnected the connector that connects the wheel speed sensor wire to the truck's wiring harness connector in the local area. For us, the connector was located on the upper rail of the frame just over the rear wheels. It 'should' not have been disturbed by our work, but it was.

Check your wire connectors that connect the front wheel sensor wires to the truck's wiring harness. If they look connected, disconnect and reconnect them.

Yep, replaced the right front wheel speed sensor and it fixed all the dash lights.

Thank you for the help.
