Whats this called and where can I get one & price?
« on: 11 February 2008, 10:36 »
Hi,

Had a problem with one of the rear speed sensors recently, had to wait weeks to get it changed and in the meantime it looks as if the ABS light has burnt itself out from being permanently on!! (well, had the sensor replaced and no light, even on startup etc)

I've been told I need to replace the whole module, is this correct???? If so, where from and how much?? oh, and is it easy for me to do myself etc

Any help appreciated.


Cheers

Really easy to do mate. Get one from a VW breakers. Pull the unit out and pop the cable clip off the back and it's off. To put a new one in just do the reverse, really simple. When you take the unit out, look down the side of the white/cream plastic inside and you'll see the part no. You will need a light unit with the same part no. Give these guys on this ebay link a bell and ask them to send one, you can pay over the phone

Looking at paying about £25 delivered, that ones really rare (i've never seen one like that!) so it's a bit more expensive
