    I asked this in a FB group, and was told that yeah it's likely the wheel speed sensor(s). After pricing out from a reliable source (I dont want to use Amazon china if i can avoid) I'll be in it about $500. Can't tell which one might be going bad. I'd want to replace all 4 at the same time.
    Does anyone else have experience with the below issue?

    My 09 tacoma has been activating the anti skid. Mostly when making right hand curves at random speeds above 30 mph. This is not the anti lock, but the anti skid control that would keep vehicle straight, as when the tail end would slide when snow covered roads. I'm guessing the sensors at the front wheels may need replaced?

    Ask around if someone has Techstream, or grab it off the forum and install for yourself. Check if it has your sensor outputs first.

    It sounds to me like the vehicle stability control. I am not that familiar with what they had on an 09 truck to give a lot of in-depth advice though.
    Is the truck lifted?
    How old and worn out are your springs and shocks?
    Does it still have the sway bar installed?
    Do you notice body roll in curves?

    I know some 3rd Gens need to reset vehicle stability control zero point calibration after lifts, otherwise it kicks in with minor body roll because it isn’t zeroed on level.

    Truck is not lifted. Springs and shocks seem ok, and no body roll noted.
    I'll check into this a d I appreciate it!
