    Had ESP activate on the highway today

    My prelim diagnosis is a bad wheel sensor (esp has been pulsing around interstate on/off ramps for awhile now) so I have two questions:

    What fuse its the abs fuse? Need to get home today without it acting up.
    How bad are the sensors to replace?

    I'm going to replace all good sensors since they are 90 and that's chalet than a diagnostic fee.

    I had a reply typed up yesterday but forgot to hit post lol

    Sensors can be checked with a voltmeter I think.

    A bad sensor acts up usually only at the beginning of driving, the ESP will kick in right when you reach 10 mph our so, then knock/jolt and turn itself off and the Jeep will drive normal.

    What you are having sounds like what I had a couple years ago, there is some sort of "ring" inside the hub that can go bad and cause the intermittent ESP kicking on. I forget what its called sorry. It would kick ESP in during hard acceleration
