3rd Gen ABS sensors

Post by tontoe » Mon May 21, 2018 11:42 am

ABS light is on. Haven't identified specific sensor yet, so just preparing for a [long] search.
Does anybody know a source for ABS sensors?
I've had a couple in the past from Rock Auto, but they're completely out of stock now, and BWD have discontinued manufacture.
Thanks :)

I used 4th gen sensors on my 3rd back in the day, spliced them into the wiring for the 3rd gen sensor, solder/heatshrink/self amalg tape.

Only other issue was shimming the sensor with washers to get the spacing right, but worked a treat.
