ABS release and trac light
I have a 95 Z-28 Camaro.
I took it to the shop the other day to have back brakes put on it. The front brakes still have life so didn't have those done. When the tech finished the brakes he took it for a test drive and noticed the low trac light coming on when coming to a stop and then going off. When he ran the diagnostic on it the code for it was 53 stating right front release. So he kept it for the night to check it again the next morning. When they drove it again the light didn't come on so I picked up the car on Friday. Later that day it happened again. So this is what happens, when slowing down for a stop, right before the abs releases it jumps forward a few feet before it stops and then the low trac light comes on and goes off. The tech. here doesn't know what it is. So if anyone can help me with this I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Shannon

I've had that happen when the rear sensor on the differential housing had dirt on it. You may need to clean the sensor on the right front, if that's what the code indicated. Also check the harness connector for corrosion or damage.
