My 94 Honda wagon: ABS light is on:  I Replaced Rear Calipers, Rotors, and pads.–  On the front of the vehicle I replaced both calipers and pads only.  The brake lines are all clear and free flowing but when I use my brakes the front driver side caliper will not retract.  I release the pressure from the Accumulator box under the hood by loosening the line nut and when I do this I can hear the driver side caliper retracting bit by bit.  when it stops making noise I close the line nut. and try to drive again around the block and still have the same problem the brake locks up on me.  I cleaned the sensor tip and the CV shaft ring and again the same problem  Could this mean that the Accumulator is bad.  I know the caliper is engaging because the wheel locks up.  Would a faulty sensor cause that one caliper to lock up ?

Thank you. Town and Country 2015. Went through massive puddles, probably muck on wheel. Really appreciate the help. Also, I have that exact same DVM. Cool.

danekeeper1 says:

you can also have a broken reluctor ring that's on the half shaft, they do crack and that throws the computer off, you might also get the abs pump running on and off all the time with a broken reluctor ring….
