The above sounds like good advice.

You'd also like to know the module is now working perfectly and you've got no code issues. I'd consider talking to BBA about it. They've likely run into similar re-install problems, and maybe have a resetting, code or other computer solution. If that doesn't work, you might want them to retest the module. Just like the yaw sensor, it still could be a module problem.

If you are confident that the module is working properly, then you can work on any error code. Good luck and let us know what happens.

Default Wheel Speed sensor

Sent ABS unit back to BBA for them to verify if something was missed but they reported that they did not miss anything so will need to verify if the wheel speed sensor is the culprit...looking ahead, started to see how much these things cost...stealership quoted $230 ea (Whaaat?), really?? I've also seen some 3rd party replacements? Can someone let me know if there is a cheaper alternative? Thanks.

Did you unplug the battery before plugging in the harness? If not, then you likely fried the connections again.
If you did, then you may still have issues with the wheel speed sensor. You could try to clean it, and check connections under the hood (against firewall).

Default Wheel Speed sensor

Zero-ing in on the wheel speed sensor...does anyone have any recommendations on after market sensors or am I stuck with the OE sensor? Seems like there are several on ebay.

Thanks.

Wow, still messing with this ABS problem. Wheel sensor turned out not to be the problem and now back to the ABS module. ABS module was determined to be not repairable so will need to replace. Is replacing with a used module as simple as plugging it in or is there some kind of a coding needed by the dealership? I heard that these modules may be tied to the VIN numbers? Anyone ever replaced theirs with a used one?
