Golf gti mk3 16v ABS problem again but with a difference!

[dragongreengolfgti]

Right where to start basically my Abs has been playing up for best part of 11 months now! The ABS light and handbrake light on 

So after reading many other story's and looking at a guide on here at how to fix things with the ecu I set about doing this at the weekend! 

Codes I was getting before were

00283 - left front abs speed signal range/performance
00285 - right front abs speed signal range/performance
00287 - right rear abs speed signal range/performance (g44)
00290 - rear right  abs speed signal range/performance (g46)
01276 - abs hydraulic pump-v64

Now then after following the guide and taking apart my ecu doing some soldering and finding a dry joint I have managed to get rid of some codes being 00287.00290 and finally (01276 which was the worst offender)

This is a good result so far however  after deleting the codes and going for a drive after returning and checking for codes again. I noticed handbrake light still on and also have codes for both front abs sensors! 

These codes 00283 and 00285 are staying on even after deleting them and not even starting the car. With a re scan immediately after deleting it will still pick up these codes.

6 months ago I replaced the two front sensors and abs rings as I re conned both my front hubs here is a pic of one side.
 

So I think my question is Should I do a main ECU reset with battery d/c for 10 mins will that work or what else could now be the problem seems I have solved one thing and I am now stuck with another! Any help appreciated thanks in advance.

I was trying to find it again writing this i will keep looking for you as i seen you have a similar problem 

[danmusic24]

yes i have,got the pump code popping up and have got myself a replacement pump but its a bit of a job to change to find out its not the prob..so looking for that ecu repair link

Just found the image i used which is how mine looks inside heres link

The circled pins are what I re soldered and I also done all the small pins top right of image as a precaution measure which I believe is the actual sensor wiring inside the ecu.

Here is the link to a thread on this forum which i took the image from and followed and so far has worked for me i also got a replacement pump which didn't cure it so it must be your ecu aswell!!

After fixing the pump problem on mine now i am going to do the ecu that i have as a spare and see if i cure that one also if i do then i could well have a spare ecu for you which i'd do a swap with

Sounds good fella,keep me posted on that ecu! Will have a go at the repair cheers for links...

any ideas anyone? i will check the actual sensors incase i managed to buy to bad ones bit frustrating if i did!

i recommended to some else the other day, but get in touch with BBA REMAN though ebay. i paid 90 quid and UPS came picked up my module on friday and its due back tommrow. comes with a life time guarantee.
 seeing as this is such  a big problem on these, its worth the dollar (to me anyway) to know that its defiantly fixed and that if it does play up again, it can be fixed for free.

The sensors should measure between 1k and 1.3k ohms.

You should have checked continuity of the pins after soldering, you may not have done the job right as the solder needs to flow.

The sensors should measure between 1k and 1.3k ohms.

Sound advice again.

Would say that the later over moulded sensors are prone to going, Ive had them last less than 6 months before all due to how they are made.
