Brake fluid leaking from right rear wheelBooMitch - 1994 Buick LeSabre - Brakes - 11/9/2012There is brake fluid leaking from my right rear wheel. Is this likely to be an expensive repair, or could it be just a hose that has come loose or is broken?

9/28/2012 MayorI would first check the wheel speed sensor wiring where it comes out of the wheel assembly. Usually not well protected and can get broken. Check the wires coming out of the back of the front wheels for breaks.

9/16/2012 HouseCallAutoPlease explain which brake lines you are referring, your question has no accompanying details. there are rubber hoses that go to each wheel and there are many steel lines. why do you ask?

Antilock lightlaurajames - 2004 Buick Rendezvous - Brakes - 9/11/2012My antilock light keeps coming on even after we have changed the brakes. Why is it doing this?-
9/11/2012 CVOAfter the brakes were changed, the ABS sensor wiring harness might not be secured back to their location, a banging could damage the harness and trigger the light.
1. Check the sensor wiring harness and see if there is any of them had been loosed or damaged..
2. Have a repair shop to scan and extract the fault codes.
