Can a bad wheel bearing trigger ABS?
2: Bad Wheel Bearing A wheel bearing isn’t often considered an ABS component, but it directly involves it and if failed, will throw the system into error mode. If a wheel bearing is significantly worn to the point where the wheel can wobble about its axis, more than likely an ABS speed sensor code will be stored.

Can a wheel bearing be replaced on an ABS system?
The new style ABS systems use a magnetic encoder built into the wheel bearing, and if the wheel bearing is installed backward with the encoder facing out, it won’t take long before your ABS light is on and your stress level goes up. The sad part is, you will most likely have to replace the wheel bearing with a new one.
