I think it's the sensor that says if you're on 22's or not. Good luck with that, Mr. Goodwrench.

Got to be ABS or other wheel speed sensor

Thats why on brake jobs you should hang the caliper from a wire not leave it dangle.
I realize this is different but is shows the unexpected expenses of DIY

Good luck careful with the rest

Great thing about digital cameras is you can walk into the store and say I need one of these parts

when u take the abs sensor off u gotta wiggle it off with pliers. sometimes u can tear it apart by pulling on it to hard.

ok so its the ABS sensor, and all i didnt was pull wire out of plug. anyone think i can just unmount the sensor and try to reconnect the wiring? and if i just leave it for now will it be hazardous?

Thats the abs/wheel sensor. Its like 35 bucks. If you need to drive the car i would tape the wire up or unplug it. just be forewarned that your abs most likely wont work with it disconnected?
