ABS Warning Light

[Scott Blanchard]

I was driving to work tonight 3/15/2012 in my 2006, 4X4 GMC Sierra, SLT when the ABS Light came on. I have read on other forums about a code C0265 or that I should clean the ground on the frame rail in front of the tank. Short of something I can do I am headed to the dealer in the am.

Also have been experiencing a metallic clicking noise I believe is coming from the left wheel hub when i first roll in the mornings. I had a wheel hub break a year ago, but it did not activate the ABS Light. Is it possible if the inboard retention nut is loose for it to activate the ABS light?

no but a hub failure will eventually ,good luck ,tell us what they find

Just found a recall on wheel hub assemblies from federal mogul and carquest about replacement wheel hub units. Need to find out what brand was

used to replace the one that broke on my 06. My wifes 06 also has a replacement assembly on it. Recall says that a wire to the sensor maye too short and when the retention nut loosens it can cause the ABS light. Will see after work.

when the nut loosens the hub comes apart ,hence the code

 

again good luck
