Renewed my rear disc’s no I have no ABS and light is on ??

[Gerko]

Hi  guys , just put new disks & pads on my anni , all working fine mechanically  wise ,but now my abs light is on all the time and I have no abs

Also my handbrake light goes off when I take it off but then comes on after about 30 seconds of driving.
Checked fluid levels and there fine.

Tried the MFA reset, no joy.
All worked fine before I renewed anybody any ideas.

did you take the abs toothed rings off the old rear discs and fit them to the new discs?

[Gerko]

no i didnt. doh doh and double doh , thought they looked different
you learn the hard way cheers

[Gerko]

any tips in getting them off ? or is it easer to buy new ones

[richking]

do the rings come off or are they part of the disc?

They are separate to the discs, however it may be easier just to buy new ones, as there is a risk of damaging them when separating them from the disc. They aren't expensive to buy.

yeah just had a look at my old ones' they ain't coming off any time soon
any body know if i can get them from GSF Euro etc or are they only OEM

[boneybradley]

euro sell them...about £8 each! i have always reused the old ones and knock them out with a slight tap on a chisel

[Gerko]

think i'll buy some for £8 , they look like a right nightmare to remove

Just get them red hot and they'll drop straight off.....
