Those symptoms are indicative of a bad wheel bearing. The hub assembly will need to be replaced.

Back to the OBD II problem...

Are you getting power to pin 16 of the plug? It is the pin in the lower right corner of the plug as you're looking at it. Backprobe that pin with a test light or meter and make sure it is hot.

Here's a schematic and pin assignment for the plug:

The ABS and traction light both coming on are classic signs of a bad wheel bearing on these vehicles. That's where I would focus my attention.
