allport Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 I purchased a 2007 ford edge and noticed on medium to tight left turns the traction control will kick in. This is very dangerous on dry roads when changing lanes and all power is cut mid intersection. I suspect its an fault abs sensor but only intermittent as i dont get an abs warning light. Any ideas? Ive been turning trac control off but it will still pulse the brakes when this happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinnamonEdge Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I had this happen to my 2004 Ford Escape and it was a broken Tone ring. It wasn't too bad to replace. Corrosion formed under it and the ring snapped so when I hit the brakes the ABS would trigger every time. Sounds like you have a similar problem but with traction control it will do it on turns because the outer wheel will spin faster. Your broken tone ring will be on the right side, opposite of the turning direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evannn Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 I am having the same issue did you ever figure out if it was the tone ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
