They'rebehind the brakes. Which wheel sensor (front/rear)?

Follow the electrical wire on the steering knuckle. The ABS sensor is the only electrical thing near the caliper. The business end of the sensor sits almost touching the toothed ring around the CV joint.

What trouble code does it have stored? Throwing speed sensors at it will get expensive.

I have no idea.. I just brought it to a mechanic and he told me that there was 6 trouble codes coming from the right front wheel but he didnt tell me what they are. He just told me it's the abs sensor causes those problems and charged me $40 for the diagnosis. I took my car home .. took the wheel off and found the electric wire like Jim Blake said and found the sensor but I have no idea how to remove the sensor. It has one 10mm screw hold it to the steering knuckle, I removed the screw but have no idea how to remove the sensor and i'm so frustated .. anyone know how to remove the ABS sensor.. please help....

It should pull right out after the bolt is out. It's probably stuck with rust?
