ABS, VDC, SLIP, AWD lights on...Any Nissan/Infiniti Techs out there?

Okay...like a lot of us on this forum, I was driving along when out of now where, my ABS / VDC / SLIP lights all came on at the same time. About 3 seconds later, the AWD lights up as well. When this first happened, I was driving on a highway at about 90 km/hr and the ride was completely smooth.

Before any one suggest fuses or low brake fluid, I've already checked all those and they're good. I even check the brake light switch in the driver foot well...that's good too as far as I can tell.

When I turn off the car and turn it back on, the lights are still there but go out after I start driving slowly...after about 30 seconds more of driving the lights come on again in the same manner (ABS / VCS / SLIP followd by AWD).

The car went into Nissan and they ran a diagnostic with a Consult III, the out put is shown in the pic below. They concluded it was the ABS sensor, Front-Right. Seemed obvious and simple enough....so when they went go look at the ABS sensor...the frickin bolt holding the sensor in place snapped. Anyway they wanted about $330 for parts plus $150 labor to change out the sensor. To save cash, I ordered a non oem part and did it myself...I drilled 1/8" hole in the broken bolt and used a self threading metal screw to hold the sensor in place. The sensor is perfectly positioned, nice and firm, and I thought all was good.

But I'm still having the same issues. I'm starting to think looking at the output below, maybe the hub and tone ring are the issue. I mean if it was the sensor, wouldn't I get no reading at all from it? It just seems like a choppy reading which may come from a damaged or corroded tone ring. Nissan said the FR hub had no play so they didn't think it was a problem but maybe its corroded inside or something.

ANY TECHS OUT THERE THAT CAN HELP ME?

It was the right wheel bearing/hub after all. Had it replaced today and all is well. My left front hub had some play and was pretty loud so both were changed today.

Pricey but I just didn't have the time to do it myself...all is good now.
