Today, I started trying to get my car up on some levels to have enough
clearance to work on removing my worthless SPEED SENSOR. Once on the
blocks, I gave my awesome FRONTIER e BRAKE a good hard pull. I really
didn't want to be crushed by my truck today.

SPEED SENSOR bolt unscrewed, SPEED SENSOR WILL NOT BUDGE!!!! :(

I took the truck off the blocks and as I drove away from my work area, my
BRAKES felt funny as heck.

The brake pedal had to be pressed darn near to the floor before they
would engage. ABS light was on and I felt like a worthless human being
who will never ever successfully fix anything without something else
guffing up.

If any of you NISSAN GURU's could help a guy out that would be really
awesome.
This is my phone number. 219-718-6345 My name is Alex.

If any of you who know you are not Mechanics, nor phone mechanics, but
have a heart and could help a guy out with some possible explanations
and tips that would remind me that this is just one part of life owning an
11 year Frontier.

Helpless,
Alex

First off, the f-bomb is not appreciated.
Second, sounds like a complete brake insp is due, make sure
the caliper pins are not frozen, verify the rear wheel
cylinders are not frozen and adjust the rear shoes. Also
verify the parking brake is functioning properly.

Sorry to hear of your problems!

I edited your post. We don't talk like they do on pirate 4x4 or Jay Leno..

You would be better served with a SIG like mine.. It will help the gurus figure out problems easier. I hope others will come to your rescue soon. The sensor may have gotten very hot and fused it's self to the housing or it might just be corrosion.

Good Luck!.. Don S..

Sorry for my foul language. I was not aware, for I am new to forum.

I apologize to all that I have offended.
