Checking the brakes and wheel bearings

HINT: A binding brake may block some or both wheels when driving. This will mean that the wheel sensor signal is not transmitted. 

Check that the brake calipers are not sticking and locking the wheels.

Check the wheel bearing on the relevant wheel for play. Check that the wheel rotates freely and is not sticking.

Remedy as necessary.
