2003 D2 TC keeps kicking on. Just replaced differential and axle.
I'm too tired to figure this one out. Help if you can.
Just replaced the front differential and left front axle. (Reason: The left front axle flange had cracked, tore the axle ring/seal, differential fluid leaked out on a long trip, differential overheated and was destroyed).
Just got it all back together (on ramps. in my driveway)
Took it for a spin around the block.
Sounds great. Feels great.
Issue is the TC (traction control) kicks on every time I turn, or accelerate too quickly. Ease off the gas and TC stops. Dash light goes out. Continue on your way.
I'm thinking this is a wheel speed sensor issue. I did not replace either sensor. Hope doing a "Relearn" with my diagnostic thing will fix it. But guessing it won't be that simple.
Please share your thoughts. I'll be back at it tomorrow.
Thanks.

Most likely the sensor was damaged on the left side, since this is the side that gave you issues. Pull out sensor and see if it looks chewed up on the end. Do you have a ABS/TC diagnostic tool/reader? Check the hub for play also. Actually, check them all...if you don't have a code reader. Could be just a coincidence, might be an issue somewhere else.

Mine is wheel speed sensors , the two rear failed and this is what it does , I used my scan tool to see the reported speeds in all 4 wheels and the rears stay at 0, I assume this makes it think the fronts are spinning. I just pulled the fuse to drive it
