Check to make sure that your battery terminals are clean/tight and that the battery passes a load test. Hot temp kills batteries/Alts faster. What is the charging voltage?
Best to have a high end shop scanner utilized to read the stored ABS ,ESB codes.
With the light on, there are codes, a proper diagnostic with codes should point you to the problem areas.

It's all on one fuse too, so check that before pulling codes. The codes will definitely help you figure out the issue if it's not the fuse. I'm betting on a bad sensor...

Yes. ABS and traction control rely on the wheel sensor and the tone ring for information. If one of the sensors is bad, it can't determine the speed of that one wheel and has to disable the programs until it starts receiving data again.

Some quick research online and it looks like the full, 37 inch harness comes with the sensor. That makes sense as the harness can easily get damaged. It should attach up inside the wheel well. I'm at work now, so I can't check, but I'm pretty sure that's the case.

Pop your hood and take a look on the right hand side of the vehicle, there is a stud mounding point where the front passenger side ABS sensor connector is supposed to rest away from the engine block. Sometimes for reasons unknown that connector gets free and slides down to the engine block and over heats tripping the lights. Possible that may have happened so I'm throwing that as a suggestion to look at, if it has come free place the loop back onto the stud and see what happens it may have over heated enough to completely short out.

No there is not, if the lights are on there is a code. You'll have t see if you can get a hold of a Starscan to verify the codes which will tell you which sensor is gone.

My wife had the same issues with our jeep last night ,looked around the internet and the info came back speed sensor, but it shows the speed sensor in the back, some in the back of the rotors or in the middle of the rear axle,but when I looked I could not find it in any of those two places,I am starting to think its up front on 2007 liberty,anyone know where I can find the speed sensor
