I appreciate the time you took out to share this video. I know what I’m
doing tomorrow. repairing wifes 99 new beetle abs sensors! yay
Did you get a factory sensor?
thank you
boy, thank you this is my job for the weekend and has given me good insight
into preparation some mechanics replaced the incorrect sensor a year ago
and it cost a fortune, man was i ripped off. Never again!!
so just Bavarian type vehicles, then? Is there a good similar universal
software that you know of? I really like what I saw there. Much more
intelligent than a high prices scan tool
Just did a complete brake change (front/rear rotors/pads). Went to break in
the brakes and realized my abs/ESP lights were on. When I did the brake
change, I didn’t touch the rear wheel speed sensors at all but I may have
gotten brake parts cleaner on it. Would the cleaner cause me to get the
00287 code?
I had done that. Michigan has a way of making things rust really solidly.
where did you get the software and connector from? Thanks
Nice videos. 🙂 Thanks for sharing your experience!
There wasn’t much to re-grease in this case. I had done the rear brakes not
long before, so the slider grease was fresh. The contacts on the harness
were already clean… no sense in gooping them up with grease. Plus it was
winter time in Michigan… cleaning the underside of the car would be
futile 🙂
the program you using is just for VW? or asian? or VW,AUDI,etc?
Any VW group car. Search Google for VCDS.
@compu85 thats good.think mi parents corsa is don t think have Anny rust
its in the garage.but in the summer time need to clean under between the
fenders
my light just went off when I was doing the front brakes, & i went WTF!!!!
now I kno what to Look for!!! Great Job & Thanks!!!
One very important item missed…ANTI-SEIZE compound. Very informative
otherwise.
gee I guess I missed it in your video , not a drop of oil in site!
Great job on the video! I found the audiovisual very helpful especially
with a step by step explanation. It at least has educated me on the parts
involved and what the problem might be. Thanks for putting this up!
Awesome, I like how you explained it all… though your camera auto focus
was a bit slow 😛
@koioo2 I lent the car to a friend and they drove it down a dirt road. The
car is actually very rust free for a 10 year old Michigan car!
Thank You 🙂
how much for the sensors? same problem with my Chevy optra
Excelent Job!!! Thank you!!
Have the same issue. I would add drilling out the broke-off sensor may be
easier. I used a Dremel and it worked well. I have a V-Checker and it said
directly it was the right rear ABS sensor. The darn thing now is resetting
the light with it. The usual reset hasn’t worked and that’s why I’m here;
seeing if anyone has videos on this V-Checker. I have a Mac, so a handheld
is my only option.
Thanks… I have the same problem and now I can fix it myself.
It was a rotary lift.
All modern cars have sophisticated electric/electronic sensors…ECu’s and
lots of connectors handling small signal levels. Lots of faults are due to
bad connections, corrosion, moisture and dirt. What always annoys me is to
see people doing a job and not cleaning components and greasing items which
would make the job of fettling far easier the next time it has to done.
Rant over lol
all you had to do was spray some penetrating oil directly on the back of
the sensor and it would have popped right out!
congratulation i can t not do that.i do notice how dirty it is.under the
fenders.for 13 years corsa.
Thnx this was helpfull
No it was from worldpac, I got it at a local parts store.
