Help, Service light/ABS

[TeZ]

Did a search found the same porbs but mine seems diff,

Service light/ABS was on for litrally 2 seconds? do u think it could just be the Brake fluid levels? if so what do i need to refill(type etc) ,
as it was when i was breaking down a hil at a speed (not over heavily) but hard enough.


Thanks

as far as im aware the abs sensors work on frequency. Give the sensor a quick clean with some cloth and make sure the abs rong is clean and free from dirt, in this weather they get pelted with loads of crap. Failing that im not sure buddy, had this on another car of mine and a quick clean up seems to have done wonders.

^^^ thought as much where is it on the caliper yes?

 

[MrMark]

its on the hub

thanks mark will clean it at the W/E hasnt been cleaned in 2 weeks so has mud everywhere LOL will make sure i wash this very well and top up brake fluid this should cure it

 

[MrMark]

yeah. its likely that the ring is clogged up with dirt in between the teeth on it, thus the sensor cant "see" the teeth.

kool cheers will i be able to get at it with wheel on??? witha pressure washer

 

[MrMark]

carefull with the pressure washer.

if it were me, i would use a small brush (like you get with those small dustpans) and some water .

if your cars not lowered, you should be able to get under and clean it.
