Default ABS Amigo Mystery

Here's a New one for me, anyway.

Three Amigos randomly appeared this morning. Just speculating, but I believe it was triggered by a rough road occurrence. I'm lifted +3.5" w/ no rear sways.

I plugged in ABS Amigo cleared the Amigos.

When I pulled the data from the Amigo this is what I received...

I was surprised Not to see a logged fault.

A little further review, maybe this relates to me...

I did install aftermarket ceramics.

"A worn brake pad or even some new non-Land Rover Brake pads can set up a resonance vibration in the wheel hub. This vibration can interfere with the ABS sensor signal. When the ABS sensor signal is interrupted an ABS wheel speed sensor fault can be logged."

I also have a 3 amigos mystery. Here is the run down: I replaced All wheel sensors (full wire), all 4 hubs, new SLABS, rebuilt shuttle valve, and rotors and pads. I have been dealing with this nightmare for years. I am finally down to the 3 amigos staying off but.......if i start driving the rear right ABS T/C engages like that one tire is slipping. So i bought another new hub. no fix. so i went and measured the tire circumference of all my tires. (maybe unusually tread ware) nope all tires where exactly the same or within 1/8", which on a 33" tire that is not much. I am at witts end and running out of ideas as to what it could be.

My next shot in the dark is to replace all brakes calipers and to buy EBC brakes and rotors. I will start with the rear calipers first.

PLEASE HELP before i keep dumping money into something i don't need.
