Can someone PLEASE confirm which WSS is code c1234?

Post by STAGE III »

Okay over a year later I am making another run at getting my dash lights off with the CORRECT wheel speed sensor replacement.

A year ago I replaced the drivers rear sensor because I looked up a list of codes only good through 1999. I have looked through all my previous posts trying to find the correct location we decided on but I cannot find it. I remember I was told it was a front WSS on the 2000 model but I am getting conflicting information once again as I can only find posts or internet searches still identifying the codes as LR (or drivers side rear I already replaced) sensor or open circuit (I inspected all my wiring and it "looked good" but I did not have a meter to go further).Not to go down a rabbit trail on wiring though the big question is does anyone know 100% sure which WSS I need to be going after for my 2000 model SSEI with c1234 code?


I really appreciate any help, out of work and money is beyond tight. Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to do that, Sir.

Looks like I need to get under this car and check the connectors and wiring for corrosion or naked spots since that WSS has been replaced.

Appreciate it.

I looked the codes for both years back up since I was not 100% how it all went down back in 2012 (lucky to remember what I had for breakfast! ha ha ha :bhuh: )

So code c1234 in a 1999 model is for a front WSS passenger side hub. The same 2000 model code is as was just shared (drivers side rear).

I thought as did my son (official tool holder back then lol) that we did the front hub but I wanted to confirm somehow so I called my parts store and NAPA still had the records that showed the drivers rear was purchased.

SOooooooooooo..........that gets me back to my previous post and that I need to get this thing up in the air and start checking for connector corrosion or rubbed through wires.

I am glad I found new parts suppliers too because if I ever need another hub I can now get them for half of what I paid for that NAPA unit :bluetwitch:

Thanks again for the diagram
