Problem overview

Some Jeep Wrangler owners report experiencing recurring ABS sensor failures, which often manifest through symptoms such as the intermittent illumination of the ABS light and traction control icon. These signs may indicate a malfunctioning ABS system linked to a faulty sensor. To accurately diagnose the specific sensor at fault, owners are advised to utilize diagnostic tools similar to those used by authorized dealers to check ABS modules and codes. When replacing ABS sensors, it is crucial to ensure that the replacement part matches the specific wheel sensor to prevent issues like loss of brake power. Additionally, some owners express concern over the unavailability of replacement ABS units for three years following failures, highlighting a potential lack of recalls on ABS modules.
