rear speed sensor

Ok may be this will help someone in the future I may have found the problem with my rear right sensor issue there is a connector hidden below the cover inside the compartment behind the passenger seat it has all three sensors for the rear of the car left right and diff took the connectors out cleaned them and so far so good. So if you get these lights on for ABS SAR and your code is one of these sensors just give that connector a try first..
