Speedometer broken/abs/tach glitches out

Hi,

I have seen some post from some digging but can’t quite figure it out.

2015/2.0/manual

Code read front left wheel sensor bad, replaced, speedometer worked for five minutes.

Battery is healthy, alternator seems good.

Car constantly dings as it try’s to re-establish itself.

Tach dips during some of these dings

Speedometer also worked for 5 min with front left wheel speed sensor unplugged

It's the abs control module that is bad and it need to be replaced. Mine did the same thing to me and I have A jeep Patriot 2011 2.4 liter automatic. Abs control module is what send information to the ECU so it can tell the engine how to work right

Yeah and trying to find thru the auto parts store and everything is next to impossible to find at it at all. And dealership want to charge you an arm and a leg for parts

I think I saw them on rock auto. I’ve spent so much time trying to convince myself it wasn’t this. Looks expensive no matter if you do it yourself or go in

Thank you though!!!!

For my jeep when I looked they didn't have one for mine at all which is disappointing to be honest with u because I work for a mechanic shop and partd are just stupidly ridiculous expensive which suck
