nickveedub 0 Posted July 4, 2003 My ABS light is on permanently and I don't know why...... is there any way to find out whether it's just a sensor or the main unit.... any help is appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sc16v 0 Posted July 4, 2003 First check you could do is unplug each sensor and test for an open circuit, or high resistance in one of them. If there ok, remove each sensor and clean the ends, and also the rotor. and replace. If still no joy take it VW and get to put it on 1551/ 5051 and get a code of it. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Edwards 0 Posted July 8, 2003 If you've been able to remove the sensors without the use of a hammer and sharp screwdriver, they can't have been on there long... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott 0 Posted July 8, 2003 Agreed - I remember removing mine from front NS.... took a hammer (club) and a screwdriver and chisel to remove it .... didnt look to good when I had removed it ..... getting the new one in was fun too :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fine wine, Belgian chocs. 1 Posted July 10, 2003 Had me beauty hooked up to a 1551 last night and it says that my offside front and nearside rear sensors are faulty. The front one is no problem (about 27 quid from German & Swedish) but apparently the rear one is hideously expensive and has to be a geniune part. Anybody know where I can get a rear one from at a sensible price? :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sc16v 0 Posted July 12, 2003 Leenylogknob, try a breakers first. Euro car parts may do one. Funny how to sensors have gone down together?? :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe M 0 Posted July 12, 2003 Have you tried just cleaning them out? Give the sensors a wipe and make sure the teeth in the sensor ring arent clogged. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
