     2001 Avalon. Maxi Check Pro shows left rear wheel speed sensor is bad. I tested with a multimeter and yes, it shows open (infinite resistance). For kicks I tested the right rear wheel speed sensor. It shows resistance of a few ohms. It should be about 900 Ohms. Why doesn't the tool show that sensor as bad too?

     The Maxi Check and as for all other scan tools don't test the components. The module for that system does. Where did you get the specs for that sensor, also the resistance will change with the temp.
