To make a long story short...
My low traction light comes on and the brakes are being applied. It happen when I start the van. It goes away but than, my TCS and ABS light come on and stay on. Any suggestions??

Thanks

I put my money on a front hub assembly. Changed LH twice and RH once on my 97 Trans Sport @ 200K kms. Scroll down and you'll see more on this.

Does anybody has any ways on checking to make sure it's the hub?

Thanks for the reply

You need to have the codes read.

last question(hope so..)

Do you check the the error code with the OBD2? or is it different for the brakes? My van is a 1998.

Yes. You can use a code reader on the OBD or I think you can also jump the diagnostic pin to ground and watch the flashing of the check engine light. Should have no problem finding the code chart on the web.

Got it fix. The speed sensor cable was brocken. Lots of errors came up during the engine scan.
