ABS and traction control lights won't turn off. When I first start my jeep and hit the gas it feels like the brakes are locked up is anybody else experienced this at all?

 

Prob should include more details: year, miles,and upgrades.. Have you checked the sensors connections?

2012, 2.5 lift. Looking at the speed sensors and cleaned then up and no luck. When infirst accelerate it feel like the brakes are locked uo but once i get moving its fine. Still under warranty so im honna bring it to the dealer monday, just hate being without my ride for a few days

 

New lift or has it been installed for awhile?

 

The lift has been on for a while and never had any problems. And now just last night the hill assist light has come in and wont turn off. Now my jeep is struggling to go forward and sporatically lunges forward in short bursts. Wtf?!?

 

Did you check the brakes to see if they are actually engaged or sticking? I just had to replace another caliper on my 08 that had seized up.

The dash lights sound like the symptoms of a bad wheel speed sensor. I replaced the rear passenger sensor a few months ago. Install was a breeze and the part only cost $20.

Good luck!

Good luck!

 

Bingo!!! Its a faulty sensor. Checked it out today and it needs replacing

 

How did you test which sensor it was?

 

Yes, how? My 2012 Rubi has been sitting about a week. Started it Wednesday and abs and traction light won't go off. Also cruise control won't turn on. No hill assist light yet.

 

Hi:
I had this issue with my 2008 Wrangler X last fall. Took it to a local garage that has a high end reader. Connected to the odb link. Drove about 20 feet, showed a signal from 3 wheel speed sensors, no signal from the driver's side rear wheel. Replaced that sensor, lights went off driving about 50 feet. Cost of diagnosis, $50.00. Worth it to me to be able to just quickly fix just the broken component.

Good luck!
