    Curious. Is it possible for the sensor to fail? Last winter my back right wheel locked up a couple of times making my truck inoperable. One theory is that the right wheel wasn't getting any traction and all the power went to the left wheel.

    When I got the truck on a hard surface (i.e. not icy), the wheel unlocked and spun fine.

    I'm getting new tires this winter. But I'm curious if there was a possible problem with the limited slip differential and the brains of the truck not sensing traction.

    Thanks!
