Title: '06 GC - ABS, BASl lights on, juddering when slow speed turning (a resolve)
Post by: Forestwalker on June 19, 2012, 08:31:53 AM

Thought I would update people on a recent problem I had with my '06 Grand Cherokee.

Symptoms:-
After a particualrly wet drive (coincidence maybe?) my ABC, BAS and traction control came on and stayed on. It drove OK for a couple of days although when doing slow speed turning (out of the driveway, turning left etc) it juddered as If it had a flat tyre of had hit and fell of a 6" rock. After a couple of days it got really pissed off and felt like 4 flat tyres.

Resolve:-
Turned out to be a faulty wheel sensor "Jeeps are prone to it as the sensor connector is in the wheel arch" said the all knowing mechanic!! Part replaced and problem solved.. I hope. Another daft design feature and If you are a dabbler maybe worth waterproofing.
