It could be that side. I'm not saying 100% it is the ABS ring but it's quite common for them to rust or even break bringing up your ABS and service light.
The only way to tell is to take the wheels off and check.
It could even be the ABS sensor or brake pedal switch.
If you search on here you'll...
Never heard of a 9005 bulb before.
A quick look on Google brings up lots of bulbs.
They're not proper HIDs as originally fitted to 1*2s .

If these are the tyres you mean , I'm not surprised you're having steering issues.
https://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Accelera/PHI.htm 32 front and 30 rear was the recommended tyre pressure on original 182 Michelin Pe2's
I think , I'm not 100% sure though that there are different mechanisms.
I remember when I bought mine off eBay some mention of the colour of the plug and it being black.
The part number you need if you go down the eBay route is 82 002 58 328.
There are a couple of people on here breaking...
Mine failed about 18 months ago also on the driver's side, not good when it just started pissing down on the motorway lol.
The mechanism is a ball and socket , it had completely worn through the socket. I got a 2nd hand one off eBay and has been ok since ( touch wood ).
There's no way to...
I have one of these linked to Torque pro.
They're very limited in what they do.
I've only ever used it to scan and clear fault codes.

Another vote for Torchy too.
I've still got some Samsung's off him going strong after 5 years that are used every day.
As @R3k1355 says , I avoid ebay sellers cos you can't be totally be sure about the quality.
Never hear of those Falkens. Just had a quick look on tyrereviews and they come out better than Michelin PS3's as an all round tyre.
I might have a look at them when it comes time for some new tyres (y)
The one on eBay looks alot rustier than yours , maybe deeper than just surface rust.
I don't suppose you have the master cylinder and reservoir to go with it ?
For the last few years I ran Uniroyal Rainsport 2's then Rainsport 3's. I doubt you'll find a better wet weather tyre, no problems in the dry when pushing on. The downside of these tyres is the piss poor wear rate.
I'm currently running Avon ZV7's , so far so good 3k miles in and still lots of...
Cheers for all the info. Much appreciated (y) I'll keep my eye out for a servo , looked on eBay and there's one that's rusty as f**k.
I'll have a look and see if the pipes melted.
Just got to wait for a dry day and I'll try and sort the caliper out.
So worse case scenario is the servos fucked and maybe the MC too.
Do I go 2nd hand for the parts? The other problem would be finding a garage that can do it then bleed the system using clip to fire the ABS and get all the air out of the system.
I had a quick look on autodoc/onlinecarparts. All...
I had an eezibleed donkeys years ago when I had my 172 , the cap didn't fit so I threw in the back of the garage . I must have binned it some time after cos I can't find it now.
So if I check and the servo is rusty as f**k , what then?
It's beyond me doing any jobs like that my back and knees are fucked with arthritis. It takes me all my time to change brake discs and pads these days.
I have read that seized rear caliper can cause a problem with spongy brakes ? I had...
What are the symptoms if the m/c seals are knackered ?
I've always bled them foot flat to the floor.
I'm still having problems I posted about in December. Bleed the brakes , fine for a couple of weeks then back to long pedal travel. I have to quickly jab the brakes to build up any pressure or...
Renault branded type D coolant is a bright green/yellow colour , always has been as far as I know. But i have seen cars with a pink/red coolant, probably not Renault branded.
It's only 16 quid for 5 litres so stick with that...
" Good " and " Toyo " aren't normally used in the same sentence. Lots of decent tyres out there that are so much better, do a search on here.
www.renaultpartsdirect.co.uk for lots of parts you're after replacing, suspension , bushes etc .......
Welcome to CS
I can't copy the link for some reason.
If you type in eBay you should find them. f**k knows why it's come up in big letters lol.

@Dr Jekyll
I can only assume different manufacturers have different lengths.
These are my non stainless nipples. The stainless I'm using are definitely slightly longer.
