How do you tell if an AXLE is bad?

My mechanic says I have two bad axles. I got under the car and I cannot tell a good axle from a bad one. Any ideas?

Fuse

There is a fuse for the sensors. I assume it's in the fuse box under the hood, the dealer fixed mine. It costs $2. Make sure that's not the problem before you go and buy more sensors.
