Can’t fix ABS and Serv

[Clio_romford]

Hey guys,
So I’ve had the issue for a couple months now, the ABS and serv light is constantly on
I’ve had it diagnosed and was driver side ABS sensor
I sourced a new working hub with new ABS sensor installed and I’m still getting the error
Is this an ECU problem or is there something else that could be wrong?

what did you read the codes with and what was the code?

 

[JB21]

Has it been on clip?

 

[JB21]

Could be:

Sensors
Main loom
Centre loom
ABS pump
Doubt it being rings if permanent lights

Got them all if you need one.

Have you changed the rear discs & the problem started then?

Was from when the front passenger bearing was changed. And garage noticed that driver side driveshaft needed replacing, which was replaced. Happened soon after that, but could also be conincidence?

Was on a friends diagnostic machine where we picked up the fault. Then also has a rstuner which also picked up the fault

as i don't know your friend i have no clue of what diagnostic he uses let alone the code it brought up :tongueclosed:

Code readers generally do not return results in terms of passenger & drivers side.
ABS sensors are easily damaged when changing front wheel bearings.
Describing used parts as new is not really helpful either.

If you have the fault code then you will know what the problem is,
The new hub you fitted might also have a faulty sensor,

My rear left sensor current thinks my car is doing 2025 mph it doesn't show a fault but my cruise won't go on been meaning to change it for a year lol

 

[Clio_romford]

it wasn't a Renault clip, I guess just a universal diagnostic machine. if anyone local to London/Essex can help me point out my fault that'll be great
just don't want to take it to the garage and let them rip my arm off if a broken sensor or something cheap

 

[JamesBryan]

If it's had a new sensor have you checked the abs ring?

You say it's had a new driveshaft? Maybe the abs ring is wrong/broken.

If this is the correct item for your car, it`s £100 less than one in a Renault packet.

Unfortunately mine is the other type that's near impossible to find and stupidly exspensive

 

[JamesBryan]

Find someone breaking a 172 on here and get the sensor with stub axle included. Just a straight swap then.

Can be a pig to get the old sensor out and new one in.

Ok, whoever posted the link to that listing got it wrong, as 7700411747 are the front Bosch sensors.
Is the part number you are looking for 7700411745?
If not, another one of the part numbers for the LHR on this page?

[RichieJA]

6000073527 or 7659430 is the part numbers for the one I'm after

 

[STEVE.M]

Whatever you wrote, I did not receive it!

 

[RichieJA]

I messed up the comment I edited it above

 

[STEVE.M]

As you say, there is some supply problem.
There are 3 German listings on Ebay with stock, but with very expensive postage.

[RichieJA]

Have tou got the links to the eBay ones please

 

[STEVE.M]

The other 2 were the same product, but this is the best priced.
I will look into why there are so many sensors, I think many will be the same item, but with different lengths of wiring.

Think it's because some have esp and some don't and I think because the sports have rear discs

So normal Clio no esp
Normal Clio with esp
Sport with abs
Sport with abs and esp

That`s just guessing & probably not correct, as there are 4 different sensors listed for both front & rear sport discs.
I will try & get the facts.
What annoys me is that Renault are asking £100 + for something with less tech than a scalextrics car.

 

[Clio_romford]

I did get a replacement ABS sensor but I’ve not used it as the new hub had a working sensor on there.
I got the Bosch one which was the same part number as the Renault one, for sale as no need actually

 

[Clio_romford]

As previous, anyone local to Essex or London fancy with a Renault clip please let me know

What is the part number of the Bosch sensor you have not fitted, but intend to sell on?

Either the Bosch or Renault number will do.

The replacement hub had a sensor with a male or female connection to the loom under the wheel arch?

Which Clio model do you have as that has not been established to date?

 

[Clio_romford]

7700411747

I got a 2005 clio 182FF

Ok, thanks.

When the right hand drive shaft was replaced, was it double checked that the shaft had the 15mm wide ABS ring, which is the correct one for the 60mm spaced Cup pack hub, and not the standard 7.5mm?

With regards the abs sensor you have, 7700411747, it will have a 2 pin round female connector.
Can you confirm that this is the connection on the car, and not a more rectangular connector?

May be worth a trip down to Two Techs mate.

 

[Clio_romford]

There the ones who fitted the new drive shaft (twotech), guess I’ll have to let them see what’s wrong
