abs sensor types, and cheap ebay worthwhile?

[loggyboy]

Need to replace my front abs sensor.(warning light has come one since replacing the bearing today).
There seems to be a couple of versions, one looks thinner than mine, is this just a different style or a different unit completly.
also a possible different connector?
It appears the types are based around a change in 02, I assume this is the intro of esp and not a phase1/2 change.
Car is ph2 2002 172 without esp.
Can anyone enlighten me with the full gen.

Yeah that certainly looks right, but is listed for cars with ESP which I dont have as its an early ph2. However as I mentioned it appears the crossover is ph1/ph2 not esp/non esp.
For £20 il give it a try, cheers.

You can't use ESP sensors on non-ESP cars. I've currently got the wrong type on the rear of my car and they don't register a speed at all so the abs doesn't work.

I'm pretty sure the non-ESP sensors aren't even that expensive from Renault anyway

I would also inspect the ABS rings first of all. You never know, it could be that one of those is exceptionally dirty/cracked/broken.

I had a rear one that split, a few dabs of superglue in strategic places and held it till it cured.

20'000 miles later and still no faults.

Cheers, they are both fine (and relatively new) as one was broken when I bought the car.
