Great timing, I just had the passenger side axle for my 98 accord V6
replaced (outer boot torn) along with a brake flush. I have the same
issue, I had been thinking that it is a brake flush issue so far and
posted this in this newsgroup with the topic: "98 Accord brake fluid
flush issue ".

>From what I read in your post, looks like the axle replacement seems
to have some effect on the sensor..? My axle was replaced by a local
Midas store, don't you think they would know about the sensor.. ?
Anyways, your e-mail greatly helps in pursuing this issue for me...
