pesky right rear abs

Featured Replies

So my and light has been on since I got this car early this year.. Ok so I figured out with my CNN its the right rear and the code matches.. Now here is the funny part my and has been working for a small but like maybe a mile before it comes back again, while I have not pulled the sensor I did get a quick look and nothing looked broken or anything like that.. Funny the right rear is the one that costs the most.

Have you looked at the tone ring and sensor?

Sometimes the tone ring can get all rusted up, the sensor can get a lot of dust and crap built up on it, etc. A lot of the time cleaning it all up fixes the problem.

 

Or, just pull the fuse and the light in the dash.....

Well the fact I pulled the connection and I tested the ohm on the sensor and it was open.

 

I'm not going to pull the bulb.

 

The tone ring is fine..

 

I still curious why the right sensor costs more.. I thought the left and right would be interchangeable.

I have a R Front that was flagged. I changed the sensor as the tip was broken. The new sensor still read open. The connector was worn, once I cleaned and tightened the connection it was good back to the ABS unit.

 

I have spare rear's if you need one. $20 shipped.

Just an FYI, the sensor must be prefectly cylindrical in shape. With time they may loose their crisp edges they will not function properly.

I can check it again today to be sure one thing I notice is how the pedal feels when the light is not on.. Stuff then it feels normal. Once I get a chance to bleed the brakes I can find out more.

As expected code came back I got at least one solid use of the and then soon after the light came on.

Good job getting that out!!! They can be a ***************!

Just put the meter back on it.. still getting 0.2 I from that right sensor and a normal one gives me like 1.2 k

Service manual states limit is 0.8-1.2k for resistance the sensor is nothing more then a magnet with a coil wrapped around it?
