wheel bearings

Will worn out wheel bearings always turn the abs light on? I have an 06 liberty if that makes a difference. My last car I was told that the wheel bearings will end up turning the abs light on. Just a general curious question no other reason.

When one of mine went bad it actually got bad enough to turn the light on.

Wow, what do you think is happening? Is the sensor picking up the vibration? Your wheel bearings must be pretty bad.

The front wheel bearing assembly(unit bearing) houses the ABS sensor and tone ring(if you have ABS).So yes a bad wheel bearing can turn on the ABS light.
