6n2 rear weel abs sensor replacement

[sjpope78]

As above has mine scanned and it has come up sayin both rear wheel sensors faulty, the mechanic that scanned it ( owns the garage family friend) says he doesnt think that they would both be faulty its prob a wiring issue, which i know is under the rear bench, for the price of the sensors £7 each is it worth trying that 1st?? If so are they a b***h to get out ive heard they can be?

cheers for and help gys

Its unlikely they are both faulty together. Check the connections under the rear bench, then check the connections at the wheels

They are pretty difficult to get out - normally the bolts snap and have to be drilled out. If you do remove it, you need to use a good penetrating spray on the bolts that hold the sensors in first to loosen it up.

Once ive got the rear bench up there is the black cover with wires coming out, what wires are for the abs sensors??

[alexperkins]

Theres a wire that goes left and a wire that goes right - both have connector plugs on them, and go through rubber grommits. These are the ABS wires.
