Read the codes and it is saying the left rear wheel speed sensor. But at times after backing then going to drive the left rear wheel acts like it is not releasing the caliper and then it pops. Could this be the caliper sticking?

The caliper could be locking up, but I would address the wheel speed sensor issue first. Do you have the part number and manufacturer of the hub that you replaced? I just want to make sure we are talking about the same part.

Then we need to test the wheel speed sensor and make sure it is operating. Lastly can you provide the specific code?

I would suggest also that you remove the wheel and just make sure that the speed sensor is plugged in and connected properly. Thanks
