Done the diagnostics this morning, I got a code 35 on the 4WS, I looked that up and it says Wheel Speed Rear L3 CU.... There was also an ABS fault, it was section 4, fault 8. That one said Rear Left Speed Sensor..... Am I guessing its just a speed sensor on the rear left that needs replaced to fix both these faults?

Also, is rear left the driver, or passenger side?

Also, the engine management light came on when I done the diagnostics, it didnt flash, it just stayed on, does that mean anything? And the SRS light flashed continuously, in no pattern.

Don't worry about the CEL (engine management light) or SRS. When you bridge the connector, it puts all the ECU's into fault code read mode.

Yep, one sensor will fix both faults, as suspected.

I've forgotten for sure which is left and which is right. I think it's as you're sat in the drivers seat, so left would be passenger side

But anyway, your best bet is to double check it's the sensor rather than the harness anyway, by getting under the back of the car, unplugging the sensor (orange plug in board of the suspension) and continuity checking across the pins to confirm it's u/s, rather than the harness.
nb: it will be the sensor 99.99% of the time, but the one time you don't test it, will be the one time it's the harness

Thanks for the quick answer there, I've just had a quick google... Is there anywhere online I can order a second hand speed sensor, or am I gonna have to trawl the scrap yards?

Ill have a check on the harness to make sure its not that, thanks for the tip!

EDIT:

Is it one of these? http://www.amazon.co.uk/92-05-SENSOR-Ac ... B002NT1R6W
