Default abs and traction lights - solved!

i know sometimes there is a lack of people keeping up with posts and their solutions/results, so i write this for future searches.

problem: abs and trac. dash lights came on randomly

solution: was checking the speed sensors on each wheel, and found corrosion not in that harness, but the clip that connects to the harness that plugs into the wheel. (trace that speed sensor wire back like 12" and it will be clipped to the undercarriage). this has a little corrosion on one prong, i used maf cleaner and a tiny file where i could, and ta-da! no more lights on.... so far...

now for the other hundred problems...
