Default Low Speed (Below 5 MPH) ABS Activation

Is there anyone who has managed to clean the ABS sensors to avoid a "Low Speed ​​(Below 5 MPH) ABS Activation" or just buy new ones at once?

Another Tech Article (DIY) section bump.

I've cleaned several, but have had to replace a few due to the wires being broken off too close to the sensor itself to allow for a wiring repair.

Is there any way to check the ABS brakes by OBD2 so i can se whitch corner is broken, I use Tourque / bluetooth on my android but it can not check the ABS. I guess the shops have better diagnostic tools but still use OBD2 anyway?

The ABS system is not included in generic OBD2 data. You need to use a scan tool with enhanced capability for GM vehicles to access the ABS system.
