I have a 99 528i BMW I had a couple codes pop up after I bought it fixed them cleared the codes drove around to do the drive cycles and then p0500 popped up just before all 8 parameters were set changed two wheel speed sensors abs light went off for a couple minutes each time but cel stayed and they came back on a few miles later, today when I went and changed the second wss It started up with out the cel but abs never went out. So my question is if the cel light stays off but abs is on will I fail my smog check if it comes back on will they fail me for a wheel speed sensor cel. And if so how long will it take after I fix the problem will the cel. Go out cause I don't want to clear the code after it took me so long too get all the readiness parameters set for smog???? Thanks in advance any insight will help please no questions to my question just answer the ones I asked and then I'll reply thx

P0500 Vehicle speed sensor

The vehicle speed sensor is the right rear wheel speed sensor, The CK ENG LT . is for the smog check program. The purpose for the CK ENG LT is to protect the catalytic convertor and the catalytic convertor is to protect the environment, You can have a ABS light on. Not the CK ENG LT. and in some state and county being a 1999 you can have a pending code. Some you can not have a pending code. In most cases if your hassled about the pending code there other. smog test places that disregards it, But in all cases you need to have the monitor in the ready. If P0500 stays on and you already replaced the right rear wheel speed sensor the ABS module is the culprit.
