Welcome to the forum! Sometimes with those sensors you are able to remove the them and give them a good cleaning. Other cases they just have to be replaced. What led you to believe it is the rear sensor?

Sorry for the delay in my reply...ABS light was staying on and took it in and had a diognostic run which gave the code for the rear sensor was "open"!

I just replaced the rear ABS sensor on my 2000 Explorer.

It took about 5 minutes to crawl under and swap out the sensor on top of the differential. Only one bolt holds it on. It was $13 @ O'Reillys.

You must have a different year or talking about something different.

The rear abs speed sensor on my 2000 Explorer was $12.99 + tax.
