    Need some help here please. On my explorer I have the abs and traction control lights on. Both work just fine. Brakes are good it does its awd thing like it always has. The computer on the thing does its checklist. Everything comes up fine. Slapped a code reader on it. Nothing wrong. Why the hell are those two lights on? Some info would be very appreciated. Thanks

    I'm pretty sure you need a better reader to read abs codes.

    Sounds like a sensor but a better reader would help narrow it down

    abs light could mean you got a bad wheel bearing which is probably messing with your traction control too.
