ok so radomly when im driving these lights will come on. fine i just shut the car off and then on. but why is this happening..???
i believe this started happening when i had my whole exhaust put in. from headers to mufflers...
is there a sensor that maybe is bad?

well, ABS could have a loose plug under the car.
as for trac off, this may also be caused by the ABS plug being loose. mine had this issue, and it turned out one of my ABS plugs behind the caliper was unplugged
where is this plug..??? is it a sensor?

One of your ABS sensors is sending erratic signals. Could be anything from a bad sensor, to loose wires, to wires corroding. Check the sensor connections as easy said.
where is the sensor, wires located at??

On the inside of the knucle. Front: near the axle shaft, you'll see teeth on the CV joint, there's a black sensor reading those teeth. In the rear on the back side of the hub, near the lower strut point, you'll see the same plug as the front.
driver or passenger side? any pics of what the sensor looks like. im on my way to the junkyard to find one.

Both.
Remove your wheels, and look..It's not hard to spot them.

You can't be serious.
Electrical components are not better bought from a junkyard. Why? They are used, they have a high probability of being bad, just like the one you already have. Do yourself a favor, go get a new one.
Only thing electrical I could see getting from a junkyard might be an ECM or stereo components, not sensors.

x2, and why would you get a new/used one before you even knew if that was the problem?
this happened to me, it was a bad wheel sensor. go to your dealer, have em check it out and put a new one in, and it will cost you like $30.

Because throwing parts and money at it is easier than just finding the problem to start with. Or at least, that's how most people think.
