Code P0500, Wheel Speed Sensor A.
Hello everyone. The other day I noticed a CEL, so I ran the code and it appears to be the wheel speed sensor. Anyways, does anyone know the part # for the sensor itself so I can replace it? I'd rather not go to the dealership mainly because they will probably rip me off. The repair is said to be 800-1200 bucks, which is CRAZY. Either they replace more than the sensor or they're working REALLY hard (which I doubt they are).
Anyways, does anyone have experience replacing these themselves? I'm pretty sure I'm out of warranty (38.5k miles) and I'd rather not deal with the dealership.

Not sure what the part number is, but pull the plug off the sensors on both sides in the rear and check the pins. If the pins are intact a simple application of dielectric grease could solve the problem.
