Andries Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Hello to all members. I drive a 2010 Ford Escape XLS and has a slight problem and need correct information. I live part-time in a remote are in Mexico and there is no Ford Dealership around. I recently replaced the front brake pads brand new. After about two weeks later the ABS, Parking brake light and the skid light (on the dash board) comes on and off all the time. I've asked around and some people say it's the module and possibly the sensors. My question is if I keep on driving will it be a problem? Will the brakes suddenly seize up causing and accident? Would I be able to drive the vehicle until I can get her to a qualified mechanic? All input will be highly appreciated. Thanks, Andries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 It’s fine to drive you just won’t get ABS or traction or stability control. You either damaged the sensor or the tone ring or the sensor wiring when you did the brakes. Make sure the connections are good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
