I appreciate all the info. I'm just going to find my old hub, remove the sensor and put it in the new hub. That should (I hope) take care of my problem.
Abs problem?
Wife has 2013 Escape titanium awd. She is currently 360 miles away watching the grandkids. Started driving and abs and tc light comes on. I did a search on here and saw that it could be abs speed sensor. She went to Autozone and used their scan tool. Nine codes came up, now at a loss. The codes are c0040-86,c0034-07, c0040-87, u3f10-78, u0001-80, u0101-00, uu0100-00, u0037-07 and u0136-00. I understand some of these codes, brake pedal switch, rf and lr abs speed sensor, traction control and lost communication with ecm/pcm. Any ideas on where to start. Battery and alternator are good. Roads where she is are bump. Maybe something came loose. This is the first major issue (besides battery) in 206k miles. She is supposed to be coming back next Saturday. I have obd module and for scan here at home. In your opinion do you think she’ll be able to get back okay? Thanks

So far no cigars. I replaced the new sensor that came with the new hub with the sensor out of my old hub. Still have the 'hill assist' notification and the icon of a skidding car...traction control. I haven't driven it yet and don't know if that will make a difference, or if it just takes time. Never had these alerts, though, until I replaced that hub.
EDIT: Follow up. The second time I "cranked" the engine a few hours later the "Hill" message was gone. By the time I had driven 300 feet out a long driveway the traction control/abs icon disappeared off the dash. So, thanks to this forum and the info about how critical pairing the sensors correctly is, I am free from thos annoying displays. Now to find a huge parasitic draw and replace a cam sensor Bank A.

it seems like there might be multiple issues with the vehicle. It could be related to a loose connection, a damaged wiring harness, or faulty sensors. It's difficult to say whether the vehicle will be able to make it back without any issues.

Don't ask me why I am responding to this -If the item is upgraded only the last two digits change.....fact. One of the digits reflects a major change and the other a minor change. My example of BV6T-2C190 will not change unless the part is discontinued and replaced with another.
BV6T = Kuga mk2 2012 on (UK Spec) = Your G3
2C190 = Product / Engineering Line
G = Major Revision
A = Minor Revision
BV6(T)-2C190 (SUFFIX MISSING) is an ENGINEERING NUMBER. That PN will not change.
The 4th character (T) of the PN PREFIX identifies it as such.
A prefix 4th character (Z) is a SERVICE PN and is subject to continual change(s).
2C190 is the BASIC PN. All and any part(s) have a BASIC PN. The characters preceding the BASIC PN are the PN PREFIX. That will ID year and model and whether an ENGINEERING or SERVICE PN.
The characters at the end of the BASIC PART NUMBER is the PN SUFFIX, which will also ID part super-cessions, possible model, color or side.
Now this is how it works in the COLONIES. I am not familiar with the UK.
Wondering, was the replacement hub and bearing MOTORCRAFT or aftermarket?I replaced the new sensor that came with the new hub with the sensor out of my old hub.
When you perform a service such as this, you clear any and all codes and allow the control module to perform a self-test. In this case, the ABS reset itself.EDIT: Follow up.

... I wouldn't advise to drive it either.If it was me I would be driving the car home, but that is me and it would be wrong for me to advise you to do the same.
PRE-ABS used mechanical valving to control brakes bias, rear wheel lock-up, etc.. When the ABS becomes non-functional, you will still have braking but it will be uncontrolled -

The ABS warning light means the anti-lock braking system isn’t working properly, and may not work if you need to stop your car quickly.

I would like to see a counter person hunting in the bins for an ENGINEERING PN.It is more than likely an ABS sensor that has failed. FORScan wlll tell you which one. Make sure you replace it with EXACTLY the same part that comes off and ignore the guy at the shop if he tells you your VIN number says it's a different one. It has to be the same part number.
Hi there!, I know this is an old thread but i think this can help others with ABS problem. I came a cross with an article from a website about Honda ABS light. It includes common causes of ABS light. It also includes how to reset it. Hope this helps!
