Good morning Gurus..

Came back from a trip on a treacherous Road.
Had lights on my dashboard. ABS, brake light, Traction control light..

Scanned the car, a 2010 Venza, and I got the codes below.

Technician says must be ABS sensors on the tyres. That we should remove all Tires and test their sensors using a meter.

What do you think?

Scanner above can't do any abs stuff. Get a scanner that possess capability to scan abs system and use it to run live data on the abs system, by that u can narrow down on the culprit .

HottieCoach:
You should inspect brake caliper for stiffness,
if this is fine,
check abs unit.

If your abs light is equally on ,resolve the abs issue and the brake light will vanish ,otherwise check your brake switch and oil level switch.

Open circuit in left rear speed sensor
Close the circuit or replace the wheel speed sensor

Cannot be oil level cos it will be felt already on braking

To confirm if the issue is from sensor or circuit ,swap the left rear sensor to good side and confirm with scanner if the same problem shows on that side too.

To remove the wheel speed sensor On a corolla you need to remove the wheel hub sir. That's a total waste of very valuable time and resources.

A simple multimeter to check resistance is quicker.

It was swapped. They confirmed sensor is good.

They also confirmed adequate voltage is being supplied to the sensor.

I assume my audience is diyer that doesn't have experience in testing and not equipped with modern tool,beside resistance test is not even a reliable test .
