How easy is it to change an ABS sensor?
 

Hi Guys,

My ABS light has come on and its been diagnosed as my front drivers side Abs sensor at fault. My Question is how easy is it to take off and replace an ABS sensor for someone with not a lot of mechanical experience.

The garage I usually take my car to is being a pain as i've bought a second hand sensor and not one off them and my dad's friend who is handy with a spanner is on holiday for a fortnight and my MOT is due next week!

Thanks in advance for your help

If its a classic its easy only held on with couple of fixings easy enough for a novice:thumb:

They are an utter bitch to get out of the hub.

agree with mickeywrx there, they can be a real bitch to get out, i used a small trim tool and gently tapped it behind along with ****e loads of wd40!

As said can be a twāt. But also can be fine. If it won't budge just whip the hub off(20 minute job) and knock it out from the inside.
