I have to find a u tube video on how to clean these sensors before another one happens and I take out a second mortgage.
Rear ones just need to be brushed of any debris.
Cant remember if you can access with the wheel on or not, but I usually give them a wipe when servicing the rear brakes.

They're ba-ack!!! Re: ABS and Traction Control lights.

Will have to see what the scanner says this time.

If found to be the rear driver side wheel again, I guess it can be swapped with a sensor from another wheel and if the fault follows the sensor then that will confirm a new sensor is needed.

Are all speed sensors on the market the same or should I stick with Mopar?

I just stick with the Mopar.
Rear ones weren't expensive. Bought a couple a few years back when getting the rear hand brake units replaced as they were badly rusted, in-case the originals got damaged, but just reused the old ones as I new they worked.

Thanks RLT, I will stick with Mopar. Will buy 2 of them as it might be a chore to order again when another speed sensor packs it in.

Okay, finally a new sensor installed (drivers side rear wheel), computer was reset and traction control/abs warning lamps are no longer illuminated.

Have driven it a few days, and the JKU Abs/traction control is functioning as it should.
