Okay, I've been getting the low trac light lately as the brakes seem to slip and then kick in with the clicking ABS noise. I've gone and pulled the battery cable to reset the PCM like some suggested in an earlier post. Heck, I went to bed and clean forgot about the car until this morning. Well, I went out and reconnected and took it for the drive after the fact and the same thing happened! Any other suggestions?

Check the wiring for the Vehicle Speed Sensors (VSS) located on the backside of each front wheel bearing assembly as well as the VSS on the top of the differential housing. It could be possible that the connector came loose or even that the VSS is bad.- Josh<br />If you have any questions or need installation pics/help, e-mail me: Viper98885@aol.com<br /><a href=\"http://Camaroz28.cardomain.com/id/viper98885\" target=\"_blank\">\'93 Camaro Hardtop</a><br /><a href=\"http://Camaroz28.cardomain.com/id/01lincolnls8\" target=\"_blank\">\'01 Lincoln LS8 Sport</a><br />\'00 Yamaha YZF-R6<br /><a href=\"http://www.ftpp.net\" target=\"_blank\">Full Throttle Performance</a> -
How can you tell if the VSS is bad?
edit: Never mind. I found the thing in my Haynes book.

Bleeding the brakes never hurts ... are you low on fluid or out of pad?

Went to shop for a different reason and they FINALLY pulled a code when test driven. Any idea about what a C1287 means? I didn't get it fixed but told that some sensor (ABS I think) was going to go eventually.
Fluids are fine. Pads changed recently. May have to bleed them but...
Edit: spelling (I hate misspells in my posts)

Okay, the code the tech pulled isn't mentioned in the Tech. Archive. The full description on the receipt is: Code for ABS C1287 Brake Lamp Circuit. He said this code had to do with the wiring (?) but he was sure that this wasn't the prob. The sensors are possibly going to go bad eventually was the official explanation and to keep an eye out for an ABS INOP light sometime.
Anyone else have an explanation?1995 3.4 Camaro coupe. Not new or improved. Yet...<br />Hey, I changed a brake lightbulb! Is that too ricey? :^PComment
