ABS Light

[WPG2013]

Just finished a 3000 mile 'round trip from NW Montana to KC, pulling my single axle utility trailer. Installed Powerstop Extremes on all four corners prior to leaving. About 100 miles into the trip I started getting an intermittent ABS light with occasional peddle feel like trying to stop on ice.
Light would reset after shutting down and restarting.

Have the code read and post it Then we can give you a better idea as to which sensor is bad or if its the ABS module.

Don't just go and replace sensors until you know the codes

Was able to get a scanner on it. Popped the code C1155/C1233 Left Front Speed Sensor. Thanks!

OK. so I had something similar a while back. The main thing that caught my eye is when you state you are pulling a trailer. I had the same issue with the ABS coming on. Months of investigating and it ended up being the gear and pinion in the rear diff was completely broken (only after a heavy, long haul tow). Drove around for quite some time with it broken and had no idea. Pulled off the rear diff and the gear was completely broken.
