Question

Okydokey....Last week a local garage fitted some new Godspeed rear discs...remember...vented and grooved....well...on taking the car up to a particular speed the light comes on ....if I switch the ignition off then back on the light goes out again but re-appears when I achieve that same speed again ????

Now at C&K today they put the select monitor on my car and traced it to the rear nearside ABS sensor...could this have been damaged when they changed the discs ? or is it something to do with the disks themselves ???

Thoughts anyone please !

they could have quite easly damaged the sensor when fitting the discs, cheak that the censor is correctly alighned with the castlated collor on the hub as well , dont know if it is possable to move but might be missing the collar and flaging a fault ?

HI chris

Remove the sensor fron the hub and give it a clean to get the dust out
a new sensor for my old wrx was around £100 good luck

OK sorted

Garage took the sensor out and it was as dirty as my favourite lady

Cleaned and back in it's now fine again

Thanks again
