Thread: Please Help 93 Clasic rangie ABS light

It sounds like you have dislodged the sensor.

A sensor is mounted at each wheel, sensing off a 60 tooth excited ring.

The sensor sends a signal to the ecu.

The front exciter rings are fitted to the outside diameter of the CV joint.

See attached

The sensor is mounted vertically at the top of the housing, it sounds as if the air gap is too wide after working on it. The sensor is a push fit into a spring retainer, just give the outer edge of the sensor a light tap to knock it all the way back down. yes it will touch the exciter ring but it will get pushed back up and give the correct gap

Yup, what Al said!

Out of interest, was the new CV the same as the old one,IE did it have a serrated type of ring around it?
That is the sensor ring for the ABS...

Thanks for that, Yes it did have the sensor ring or serrated ring on the big end. I guess i've knocked the sensor back or it's to far away from the spline for the new CV. I'll push or tap it all the way in and see if that fixes the problem.
