2012 Impala LT. So for a while now, at one particular highway off-ramp that is pretty sharp, I would occasionally get a Traction Control or Stabilitrak issue - not sure which one because the only indicator I get is the traction control light blinking, which, from my understanding, could indicate either issue... I definitely feel the ABS system kicking in and it's hard to get the car to accelerate. The issue eventually stops on it's own as I slow to a stop at then end of the off-ramp.
Well, I had it happen again yesterday and then also at another (not-so-sharp) bend a few minutes later - both were while turning right.
So, I suspect that I'm running into the same ABS wheel speed sensor wiring issue that everyone else runs into (even though I don't get any messages on the DIC when it happens - just the blinking traction control icon)? So I figured that I'd just go ahead and replace the ABS speed sensor wiring before it gets any worse. I just want to make sure that I'm getting the right part - I'm thinking that I need this:
ACDELCO 10340314 - ABS Wheel Speed Sensor Connector (More Information for ACDELCO 10340314
Can anyone confirm or deny that this is the part I need? I'm assuming that since it's only ever happened when turning right, that I need it for the LEFT wheel? Or should I just replace both to be 100% sure?
I'm assuming that these are relatively easy to replace? Just plug in on one side and manually connect the wires on the other side?
I do have an extended warranty that would cover this, but I have a $100 deductible anyway and would rather not have to fight to get the problem to occur, make multiple appointments, etc, etc..
Thank you!
It's funny, I was just recently commenting on how lucky I was that I haven' t run into this issue yet!
Should have kept my mouth shut!!
