ABS

Hi



Just done a swivel housing replacement and the ASB light stays on, checked the resistance of the sensor, 970 ohms, same as the other side not touched. I reset the sensor as per manual but the light still stays lit and doesn't flash at switch on. Any ideas other than paying £50 to put it on a testbook??

Peter, I had exactly this problem, the test book indicated that the sensor was only operating correctly about about 10mph, I spent months b*ggering about with it. (Replaced sensors, relays and all sorts) Eventually I checked with the insurance company and stripped the ABS system off completely and fitted a servo/master. Good luck. Cheers, Sam

Thanks for that but after a bit of reading (RTFM) I set the gap as per, and the problem went away.

Wow! lucky you, I spent ages re-gapping the damned thing..... never got anywhere. Well done that man, you suceeded where many before (including me) lesser men have failed. Cheers, Sam

On or around Sat, 04 Oct 2003 21:18:03 +0100, Sam Clayton enlightened us thusly:

got a broken sensor on the 4x4 Sierra. it was stuck in it's mounting hole, and I needed the hub carrier off to change the wheelbearing. knocked sensor from hole most carefully, but now it don't work. No facility on this one for gap-setting, so it ain't that. Brakes still work, however...
