Hi all,
Car is 2004 110 , I have the TC and ABS lights on .
A nanacom test told me a rear passenger abs sensor fault.
I don't have a Nanacom, I have pulled the sensor out, does anyone know of a way to test it without a nanacom as replacement genuine one is $440.

Just measure the resistance / circuit through the sensor. Open circuit is a fail. Wiggle the wire while the meter is connected incase there is an intermittent break.

Thanks JC
Has anyone had any success with any brands other than oem which Is Wabco. I see some on eBay for as little as $14 which makes me very wary, but $400 for a Wabco is a bit rich.
