Default No power to rear abs sensor

My abs light has been on for a while and I finally got time to look at it tonight and I started checking everything and I am not getting any power to the wires for the rear sensor both front sensors have power and fuse is good so does anyone know where these wire go so I can check to see why I'm not getting power

have you ever thought about getting the ABS light read ? this will tell you what it needs. they are called DTS codes.. Dignostic Troubleshooting Codes.

Keep in mind too, you're not going to see +12V at the rear sensor, you'll see approximately 9V. Mine just failed right before I sold the truck, I put it on my reader and sure enough my rear one failed. I checked voltage with the key on, +9V, bought the new sensor and put it in. Ford here in Canada wanted $185 for the stupid sensor, I bought it from Napa for about $90. I wanted it fixed for the person who bought the truck.



As Techrep mentions too, your basic OBD tool won't read those codes unfortunately.

Also, assuming you're using a voltmeter? I'm not a fan of test lights on certain electronics. Just thought I'd check?
