This is not the best way to diagnose ABS faults, find somebody to read the fault codes, there is one thing though: if after an ignition cycle the ABS warning remains on alone untill you drive away it's definitely a sensor related fault, if after ignition all the 3 amigos are out don't chase a sensor fault cos it's in vain, it's something else, most probably SVS issue
Hi sierrafery,
I read the fault codes with my MSV-2, tells me I have a L/H rear sensor fault reading 0 times. So far over the weekend I have managed to reach two destination without the three amigos coming on. After an ignition cycle I get the ABS fault, the other two amigos appear to take a rest.
Go for a drive and the other two wake up anywhere between 1 klm and so far 26 klms into a trip. The other two plicks usually come back when I'm braking or on the over run coming to a halt.
I've just taken everything apart on the L/H rear hub, cleaned everything up and checked the voltage whilst wobbling the chassis connection. All good. Because the ABS sensor is new I am assuming that is OK. Yes I know the saying associated with "assume". Been for a test drive, 3 klms no amigos..............heres hoping for the drive to work tomorrow.
Searching in vain...........uuuummmm
Cheers Marty.
Is the hub old or some cheap chinese one? cos then the provblem is with the hub not the sensor... it's not necessary to feel play in the wheel for the reluctor ring to not work well with the sensor
Got any more good news......!!!!
:) no... to make sure you can measure resistance directly in the ECU plug's pins for that sensor and if you get between 950-1100 ohm it's definitely the hub not the wiring... also nanocom shows you stationary inputs and if they are all similar between 2-2.4V that's another confirmation
Hi there,
Thank you people for your assistance here, three days now no amigos. By George I think I got it..............
Cheers Marty :D:D:D
