Speed Sensor Problem ESP ABS

Hi I just replaced my rotors front and back and also the bearing in the front of my 2003 C32 and after putting everything back together I get all types of errors including ESP ABS and call service center.

The only way that you can drive the car more than 5 miles and hour is to shut off the traction control at the switch on the dash!

Does anyone know what the speed sensors read in the back of the hubs?
Thanks,
Chip

I do not know for sure but a lot of the newer cars read off the grease seal.
You can damage this when repl. it. If your hub does not have teeth on it then it read from the inner grease seal. You could have put the wrong one in or damaged it when installing. The rear bearings have the rotor magnets in the wheel bearing side seal. If you put the bearing in backwards it will not read.

good luck.

Thanks I think that the replacement bearing kit that I bought did not come with the correct seal. Now I am trying to find a place online that will send me the correct new seals. Or I might have to go to a dealer.

Thanks again!
