Where exactly are my abs sensors located? I have a 1999 Trans Am, and my abs inop light started coming on. I was told to check my sensors to make sure they aren't too dirty. I know they're on my wheels, but where EXACTLY? Also, what do they look like? Are there any other abs sensors other than the ones on the wheels?

Wheel speeds sensors...back side of the rotors near the dust shields or caliper brackets (i can't remember specifically)...only electronic plug in down there.
Is your 'e-brake' and 'traction control' light on as well? If all 3 are on, it's likely your ABS control module went bad.
