Default ABS Wheel Sensor

I recently changed both front hubs with ABS wheel sensors, everything was fine until I took it to Schwabs for a alignment, now when I turn left my ABS light turns on, when I straighten out it turns back off, if I am applying the brakes while turning left the ABS starts clattering like its working. I pulled off my tire and disc to check out the sensor and everything looks great including the sensor.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Sounds like a break in the wire.

I'm surprised you have ABS in the front. My 02 doesn't

Rear abs was standard on all years and front was an option on all years

Yeah, my Durango is also a 2002.
I talked to O'Reilly Auto Parts today and they are warranting the hub.
Hopefully that takes care of the issue.

Hopefully that'll take care of it for you, if not I'd start looking at the wiring where it connects to the truck.


I actually don't mind not having front abs. None of the vehicles I drove before my Durango had abs at all, so I'm used to threshold braking, plus I don't like computers having control of my brakes (being a computer engineer I know computers don't always do what they're supposed to). It is nice to have the rear wheel anitlock though.
