I had a check engine light on along with ABS traction control. The code came back to a left rear ABS sensor. I changed the sensor light went out for a few days. Light came back on cannot get the light to go out. I changed the Hub bearing. I put another sensor in and it says that there’s an open circuit to the left rear ABS sensor I need help. Can anybody help me?

The open circuit code most likely means you have a wiring or wiring connector issue somewhere between the WSS itself and the PCM. This has to be the newest Equinox I've ever heard of a WSS issue on. Has it been in an accident? Just trying to figure out if any of the wiring has been repaired on it.

No, never in an accident no issues up until a few weeks ago when my check engine light come on with ABS and traction control and it stated left rear wheel sensor again which I replaced and replaced the Hub bearing.

did you get one of those cheap hubs? I'd stick with OEM or a big name

I also agree with Po Man Nox that it sounds like a wiring issue. Maybe an open in the positive or ground leads or wiring back to PCM. I would check for power and grounds on the wiring from the sensor back to the module. Clear the code(s). Does the code come back after you test drive it or does it show up even without driving?

So I changed the Hub bearing which I used Moog bearing, I changed the sensor itself. I changed the pigtail on the other end of the sensor. The code will not go away. I cannot even clear the code with a scan tool. I’m not sure what’s going on. I don’t know my next option.
