abs and other problems

[99ranger123]

hi...new to this site. my 99 ranger xlt has another problem. have a clicking noise near the left front tire. mechanic changed out wheel bearing last year. he mentioned it might be a problem with 4wd. now besides the clicking noise my abs light came on and won't go out. is there any connection between the clicking and abs or a brake problem?

Probably not. The clicking is probably a CV joint. The ABS light could be sensors at each front wheel, sensor at the master brake cylinder, or sensor or sensors on the rear axle. A brake shop with a code reader can tell you where the ABS signal is coming from.
