Did you change the axles when you did the swap? If so, are you sure your axles have the ABS sensor rings on them?

My ABS light has come on a few times, the code showed my wheel-speed sensor was faulty. I changed it, then a month later it came back on and it's another wheel-speed sensor, I'm assuming another one, didn't bother changing it yet seeing the cars torn apart in the garage.

From what I've seen, 4th gen Preludes and ABS lights are VERY common!

Pull the code and see what it says.

Just get to the blue connector and jump the connector and the ABS light will flash a code.


Here is the list for the codes. It usually does a series of quick flashes, a pause, and then another series of quick flashes.

Codes:
1 - ABS pump motor over-run
1 2 ABS pump motor
1 3 high pressure leakage
1 4 pressure switch
1 8 high pressure system
2 1 parking brake
3 1 pulser RF
3 2 pulser LF
3 4 pulser RR
3 8 pulser LR
3 12 different diameter tires
4 1 wheel sensor RF
4 2 wheel sensor LF
4 4 wheel sensor RR
4 8 wheel sensor LR
5 - rear wheel lock - R/L
5 4 rear wheel lock - R
5 8 rear wheel lock - L
6 - fail-safe relay - F/R
6 1 fail-safe relay - F
6 4 fail-safe relay - R
7 1 solenoid - RF
7 2 solenoid - LF
7 4 solenoid - R
8 1 ABS function
8 2 CPU comparison
8 4 IC self-check

Pull the codes, and we will go from there. It's kinda hard to just diagnose without any fault codes.

My 4th gen ABS light says code 1, but the pump is dead. As far as I can tell, it doesn't do anything and looks to be a considerable pain to work on.

Russlan, did it blink 4 times, have a little pause, and blink another 4 times? If so, it's your right rear speed sensor (I have same problem).

Double check again, it should blink, have a pause, and blink again

Yes. Its the RR Abs sensor/ also called the Abs speed sensor. Its bolted to the back side of the abs shield.
