Default Abs/vsc code 43

Does anyone have any idea what this code is. I was able to pull the code. Dealer wants me to pay 100 to diagnose. I read somewhere that it is a decelration sensor located on the rear axle drivers side. Behind the strut. I have located it and tried messing around with it to no avail. I just want my TRACTION CONTROLL BACK! NOT TO METNION ABS!

does anyone else have experience with this ABS/VSC CODE? I have tried doing the calibration jumper and i cant get it to work. Is it possible that my actual sensor has given up?

Lavrishevo thanks.

Do you know if the code 43 is for sure a wheel speed sensor. How do I diagnose which is broke.

I thought I remember somewhere that this was a deceleration sensor issue with this code.

Lavrishevo-

I owe you a beer. i am gonna see if i can get another code to show besides the 43. That would suck if the acutaly control module is fried.

i laso wanna say that i used to have the 33 code rear speed sensor.
