The fault codes (DTCs) reported in your post #1 apply to both the left and right wheels. I strongly doubt that wheel bearings are the cause of your issues. You need to be looking at a cause that is common to both rear ends of your car, for example, the Electronic Brake Control Module. Have you had any recent damage to the rear of your car?

One thing I found that was interesting in the VE workshop manual was the reference shown below. My understanding was that the VE is CANBUS not GMLAN like the VF.

"The wheel speed sensor receives a 12-volt power supply voltage from the electronic brake control module (EBCM) and provides an output signal to the EBCM. As the wheel spins, the wheel speed sensor sends the EBCM a DC square wave signal. The EBCM uses the frequency of the square wave signal to calculate the wheel speed. If the EBCM identifies an error, it sets a code and communicates via GMLAN to the engine control module (ECM)."

Ok thanks for that the rear wheel bearings have a fair bit of play,car apparently had BCM replaced at gentech in Canberra and they couldn't find fault so I should b looking for 12 volt signal to sensor plugs?

Sorry, can't help you any more as I've not personally had this problem and the descriptions of the DTCs in the workshop manual are very terse and suggest that replacement of the ECM (Engine Control Module) may be necessary.

I suggest you download the VE workshop manual using the link below (1.9gb so only download to PC, no phone or notepad) and look at the DTCs around page 3857, and the ABS description around page 2090.

Ok thanks you've been great help I got wheel bearings replaced today one of magnetic strips had no magnetism left nearly got it back together previous owner lived out of town driven on corrugated dirt roads the old magnetic strips were covered in crap my mate owns a Repco repair shop he said to bring it in and put tech scanner on it just another thought if I run front sensor cables to rear and rear to front if it's and module it should throw up front wheel fault and back should b fine what do U think

Fixed fault codes new back wheel bearings wasn't much wrong with bearing more left side magnetic strip that cleared rear faults then it threw another one put tech scanner on it it came up with front left wss,replaced hub assembly cleared fault code and no more faults
