Brake Fluid sensor?
« on: 15 December 2003, 15:14 »
Hi Guy's

Just got back from an MOT, the only advisory i got was the the brake fluid was low and that the cap was broken and the sensor not working,.......the guy passed the MOT

But i'm now wondering, how much a new one would be and if there easy to replace ? secondly after looking all the fluid resvours seem ok, am i  looking in the right place?

one seased rear caliper, bullet stone chiped windscreen, burst shocks, worn top mounts, car was too low for the MOT ramp, cracks in the tires, tracking was out, car running too rich, the list goes on......

MOT PASSED! :o

i dont think you have to drain the fluid as i think the sensor is on the cap? Change the cap???
