so i took the car to the mechanic, good guy, knowledgeable too. he replaced my bearing, front passenger. took the car out, no more noise, perfect. all of the sudden, My ESP, ABS, and Parking break warning light up after driving it for a 10, 15 mins. i wouldnt mind if it were xmas, but it passed and i dont need all those lights lit.
any suggestions... i will take the car back to check but before i go maybe i can tell him something...
thanks guys...

take the wheel of and find the sensor. it is a little stick pointing into the hub. the sensor connected with the wire. so you just can look for wires. there only two of them: one for brakebpad wear sensor and one for abs sensor.

I doubt that the guy damaged sensor. most likly he pulled it out or left some junk on it (sensor has magnet and collects metal shavings) or did not reconect wire securelly.

so after you take off the wheel and locate sensor - simply pull it out from the hub. clean it and the whole with towel, put it back completly. disconect wire connector and clean it with WD40 or alcohol.
prettly simple and should work.

The sooner you do it, the better, because as you stand right now both your ABS and your ESP are compromised. I'll be careful driving if I were you.
