Q: wrote i am wondering if any of you are aware of a problem in the newer ram trucks mines an 03. recently while driving my brake and abs warning lamp came on and the speedo immediately dropped to zero and stayed there..... anyone have any idea what happened without getting plugged in to the obdii failure of the rear wheel speed sensor. common problem - easy fix. if its still under warranty you can go that route or you can fix it yourself for about $30. unplug the electrical from the sensor located on top of the rear differential housing then unbolt the sensor hold-down bracket. youll probably have to remove another nut and move the brake line out of the way in order to remove the sensor. put the new one in bolt everything back down and re-install the electrical connector. should take about 5 minutes. thank you very much! i appreciate the quick response -- posted using the http//www.autoforumz.com interface at authors request articles individually checked for conformance to usenet standards topic url http//www.autoforumz.com/dodge-brake-abs-warning-lamp-ftopict139688.html visit topic url to contact author reg. reqd. report abuse http//www.autoforumz.com/eform.phpp=676791 .
