Great work! A little antiseize compound on the hub surface might hold off the rust for a little while. Thanks for sharing!

@@charibroden2668 no. Never noticed mine doing anything like that.

Really? Your missing the c/v shaft retainer, that is a big problem, will damage bearing.

@@baukesikma9374 good eye, but it wasn’t missing. I removed it. I replaced the cv shaft later.

[@papoDarwin]

I do not usually comment on KZbin but today was the exception. After wasting hundreds of dollars on mechanics to fix my buzzing issue which they could not figure it out . Also the Toyota dealer wanted $1,000 to replace both front ABS sensors to fix my brake buzzing issue. I was able to follow your advice on your video and today I finally cleaned the rust between the hub and the ABS sensors. My buzzing issue disappeared. You saved me more money because I was going to replace both sensors. I drive a Toyota Sienna 2008 LE. Thanks for your video.

Thank you for this video. That noise had been driving me crazy. Ive cleaned my rotors, greased up my caliper pins, changed my pads and the noise and vibration in my pedal was still there. No one told me abs needed maintenance.

[@MsMcKat-ub4sm]

Thank you I'm a disabled senior, and I've been trying to describe this to my mechanic and my brother for 3 years. They told me it was ABS and I kept saying it grinds almost every time I stop. 2005 Trailblazer. Thanks again, I;m sending your link to my brother.

[@corbangillen2099]

I have been trying to figure out why my Silverado has been doing this… you have solved all of my problems!

[@TotenwutKanal]

just some minor additions: 1.) you don't need to loosen the brake caliper first and the bracket after that. Just unscrew that 18 mm bolts and take off the whole assembly in one step, saves time. 2.) after removing the rust scales and cleaning up the area where the sensor sits, use some grease or just a thin layer of spray paint to prevent it from rusting right back up again. will make it last longer until the next exakt same procedure Other than that, great video and keep it up :-)

[@tremendoushustle9548]

Thank you for the additional tips! I was wondering why the brakes had to be taken a part the way he did it in the video and it turns out you don’t have to do it that way.

[@QuinnThomas-w6x]

If corrosion has lifted the sensor because it sets off to the side of its bolt and his plastic I wonder if you could heat it up just enough to Arch it so you know it's an all the way

[@mrrjtrevino]

So my 06 Chevy trailblazer was doing the same thing I went to a tire shop in my neighborhood and got a ABS computer diagnostic for $35. The guy told me that my ABS control module was bad. It said it was expensive. What the heck I went wasted $35 I came home did exactly what you did in your video and boom Shalaka problem solved. Thanks for your video.

You Wouldn't think with 2 brand new hub sensors that I'd have a problem but it does exactly what you were experiencing. Thanks again.

[@chrislink8726]

Thank you for this! Mine was activating at 15mph. After watching this and replacing the sensor, i found that putting the factory shim on the aftermarket sensor was no bueno. Took the shim off and it's now doing it at 5mph. So mine is still a clearance issue between the magnet in the sensor against the tone ring inside the hub assembly. But this video got me on the right track. Thank you!

[@richardwallinger1683]

good thinking .. nice video ..I would have brushed some anti rust protection on all of that corrosion . You got lucky with that plastic pickup sensor . I have had issues with my abs module making the front brakes drag . I have a scan tool Foxwell NT630 Plus .. which does abs bleed and more .. I imagine what is happening is that the modulator dump valve is stuck after I fitted new pads and did a brake fluid flush / replacement . Using the scan tool I can hear the various valves clicking but when the scanner asks for the abs on off the disc is so solid that it is not possible to turn the disc by hand .

[@jayburns25]

If you spray some Rust-Oleum on before you put sensor back on it will help from rust build up in future as well. Nice video. Very helpful for me and my '02 trailblazer
