Gutted this is being so frustrating for you. Book an MOT, get it upto speed on the road, hope the sensors will all calibrate and work together as all 4 wheels rotate, worst case, they won't clear, but you get the full picture of the cars condition. An MOT may show bigger issues making it a parts car, or give it a mostly clean bill of health and put some wind in your sails to push on with the ABS/TC lights knowing its a solid car once done. You should get a free retest so if you fix all the issues they flag, no real financial loss. Loving the content, the editing seems to be getting better each week, this little Swift will be all the sweeter when its finished after playing hard get.

[@da-mazing8500]

Sounds like a good approach

[@da-mazing8500]

This is the pain most driveway diyers go through so we can all relate. It all makes for good content. Keep up with the videos and the perseverance!

[@Stegome]

One thing I will say is whenever fitting new Discs always clean them off with brake cleaner first. A lot of companies will apply a oil like substance to the new discs to stop them from rusting

[@LeeFradley]

It could be the sensors are you fitting none genuine aftermarket it may not like them. Or just because your test driving it jacked up it may not be giving the road resistance it needs to reset the codes and activate the speedo. Just a couple of ideas. Hope you get it sorted mate and keep up the good work .

[@GamingInTheFASTLANE]

one of the best videos i have watched. I'm looking forward to the next one. Your content is only going ⬆️ 🔥

[@02081974Andy]

I know it’s frustrating, but fantastic video, to many videos on KZbin make it look simple and don’t show the reality of a real world on the drive story. Love the video if everything is easy it’s boring. Keep up the good work.

[@aaronalp2639]

So the ABS and the ESP in swift sports are all connected to the ABS Module and also the clock spring also in which steering angle sensors and I believe the speedo are all intertwined with. They can store hard faults that nothing seems to clear. Suzuki say if you drive it for a certain time then it resets. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don’t. Any fault stored in the system will cause an issue like you’re having. Mechanically they’re simple cars to work on. The electric systems in them can be an utter nightmare though especially esp/abs related issues

[@TheShaun1289]

I’m pretty sure the speedo works of the rear abs sensor,go in abs module live data and spin each wheel and check if the readings go up

[@PandaMobileMechanic]

Check each abs sensor using live data and see if you have a reading for each one which is best way to check without seeing if you need to change the sensor or not. For future, Live data is your best friend to diagnose issues before replacing any parts.

[@ashg7014]

If still go get it tracked up mate pretty sure the steering angle sensor can through up these lights when tracking is out. My Clio 172 did this mate

[@plaindoubles]

Happy to help man ✌️✌️ your doing great bro, you’ll love the drive once it’s done ✌️✌️✌️ thanks for the shout out 😅

[@deerawselecta7709]

Don't quote me,but as far as I'm aware,to make the abs module think the car is driving,all 4 wheels have to turn in sync.we had a Renault espace with abs issues,we did live readings for each corner,and narrowed it down to osf corner.we then had a garage press a new bearing in (which didn't have the magnetic strip inside) so still no reading.we bought a press,got the correct bearing and rebuilt.the codes all cleared as yours did,but after so many ignition cycles,the light came back on the dash.the only thing left to do was clear the codes and drive the car,which turned out fine.hope this helps.

[@lukerobinson7413]

Always put plus gas heat and spray bolts with plus gas before trying to remove them.6 sided sockets are a must soo and loosen then tighten and work it out slowly.Sometimes it snaps anyway but this gives you a chance.

[@eszenix]

Based on your issues and you getting no reading at all from the ABS sensors, I’d try and remove the ECU and see if it has any water damage. Typically if this was the case, you might not be able to communicate with the ABS module with your scanner, which you are able to do, but you never know. So worth a shot. The other thing I’d check for is physical damage to the ABS sensor harness. So the wiring that comes through the chassis of the car and connects to the ABS sensor itself. You can do a few tests with a multimeter as well on the harness, not sure if you’ve done that already. I don’t think it was ever going to be the reluctor ring on the bearing because typically when that’s damaged, you’d get mixed signals from the sensor and you’d have values that jump all over the place. Whereas you had no values. The fact that you have no reading at all, indicates that it is as if you didn’t even have the ABS sensors connected, leading to a wiring issue. Which are the worst to diagnose. The other thing to check is whether the ABS sensor is catching the reluctor ring. You’d see score marks on the sensor. If this is the case, you can use washers to space out the sensor but it’s very rare that this needs doing. One last thing is, make sure when you’re put the sensor back in, that the sensor is flush on the hub by cleaning the mating face as much as possible. Also try and see where the sensor has sat originally by looking at the mark left by the sensor originally and place it in that position before bolting it down. My BMW was exactly this temperamental. Basically when the ABS sensor was put in at an ever so slightly different angle, just by a millimetre or less and it wasn’t playing ball. Good luck!

[@anthonymoore3379]

Hi Jesse the abs system has to register all 4 wheels turning at the same time over 7kph and the reason your having trouble clearing your faults is because you start the car to clear all was clear faults with engine off and ignition on hope this helps and don't give up so easily a message away for advice 👍

[@Neil_phoenix]

Hi Jesse the reason why the light was on with the diagnostic machine on is because when you scan some systems like abs the light will come on, if you scan the steering system the steering light will come on once you go out the scan then the lights will go back out. What codes are you getting in regards to the ABS.

[@benmatthew356]

Welcome to a day in a life of a mechanic It’s an electrical problem you need to get a multimeter and a wiring schematic and load test everything and check for continuity. You’ll just waste more money swapping parts. And you need to drive the car to get it to fault once you’ve cleared codes otherwise you’re going to get your hopes up every time. It’s always going to be annoying diagnosing faults on cars your not familiar with jobs like this will be annoying until you get more experience

[@novicetheaf]

You've done a pile of work there Jesse, great video, I'm sorry to see thst you're struggling with that issue, I'd honestly be baffled at what it os as well seems like you've done all the right stuff. Hope it gets sorted for you and you get out in it fingers crossed 🤞

[@Kylep13]

Probably already been answered, but whilst your still connected and in the abs system the warning lights won’t go off, until you come out the system the car still thinks it’s in diagnostic mode, hence why the lights flashed on when the scanner was doing a fault code check, also your best clearing codes with ignition on and engine off, some manufacturers don’t like clearing faults with engine running, as for the abs fault, the car needs to see all 4 wheels spinning, ideally you need to take it for a drive with live data and see if all 4 wheels are picking up a speed, could a be a cheap bad sensor causing the fault 👌🏻

[@_LuisS]

The reason you're getting no speed while jacked up is because there's speed sensors on all 4 wheels and they all need to be turning. And because you still have the hand brake up.. Drive it up and down the driveway and speedo should work again.

[@joshmerrick4716]

I came to say the same thing. I jacked my ep3 up with both front wheels off the ground and put it in first gear to see if the front wheels were buckled after hitting a big pothole. My abs and esp lights came on then but went away after 10 seconds of driving the car up and down my road

[@JesseCollingham]

I wish so! Love data shows each individual wheel sensor so when fronts jacked up it should read them 2 separate to the front 2

[@alexstowell16]

That's what I was wondering pal, worth a try init nowt else to loose

[@stuartroberts2537]

If all sencers check out to be ok id say change the intrument cluster few years ago i had same no speedo on a diffrent car ford escort mk6 common fault soon as i changed it worked perfect worth a try and try your fav breakers one last time fella 😂

[@xgouldiex]

​@@JesseCollingham speed sensor is normally in the gearbox and if you have no speed reading then the abs will throw a fault as it needs to know the speed to work correctly

[@PandaMobileMechanic]

You will still get the lights on the dash even if you have fixed the faults like the abs sensors until you clear the error codes from ecu otherwise the ecu still thinks there is an issue. You have accessed the ABS/EPS module and historic codes still existed, so as far as the ecu is concerned the faults are still present so the lights are still on, you cleared the codes and so you are telling the ecu you have fixed the faults. Down the line if any abs/esp issues occur again the relevant lights on the dash will come back on, if all is good, they will stay off. This applies for the other modules on the vehicles as well.

[@Dancave123]

Maybe with running the car with the wheels off in the air could be triggering the esp ? It could be detecting slip as there’s no resistance.. just a thought 👍

[@kopitedave8159]

Change the transmission speed sensor on the gearbox just by the starter motor, I'm guessing that's faulty or corroded and then as others have said you'll have to go drive it when it's quiet up your road to get all 4 wheel moving at the same speed.

[@Xbox360gam4r95]

The car has to be moving down the road for it to register a speed

[@TechUK21]

no it dont

[@I_am_BiG_Al]

​@@TechUK21doesn't* 🙄

[@neilobusk]

Should i think be able to get a live data from the abs sensors... spin the wheel front and rear.. just to test em.. can on my Autel. probs needs bit of a drive to re-cal them... when I was a lad..speedo was from the gearbox...? but that was a cable... Keep on.. N x

[@tommclean9995]

Can you check live data and visably watch data and look at what your wheel speed sensors are doing on all 4 corners and its worth trying to re calibrate your steering angle sensor too

[@shaneomac-9069]

Run it backwards and fowards off and on the drive locking left and right and it should calibrate the sensors, as long as its had new abs rings and speed sensors should sort your problem

[@TheDrago1882]

Vehicle speed sensor in gearbox? Wheel speed sensors don’t normally affect speedometer. Normally only for ABS reading to detect wheel slippage etc

[@He8MyHand]

My abs light comes on if I run it jacked up. Also abs sensors can be awkward sometimes, make sure you buy good quality, I’d go to a dealer

[@dannyauto5901]

Well done Jesse you worked hard there mate, I'm sure you can sort it, another great episode 👌👍🤘🤟❤️

[@andrewcairns7719]

What a bummer mate.. hope you get it sorted👍🏻

[@benc2722]

Haven’t got to the end of the video yet but replace the abs rings mate, that what fixed the abs problem on my car

[@benc2722]

They become rusty and crack causing an incorrect sensor to be picked up by the sensor

[@ScottishSalvageRebuilds]

I’ve had issues before and always found a good 40-60mph drive recalibrates the system

[@joem8213]

Just take it up and down the road you live on mate, it will be fine. It's not like your driving around everywhere and using it as a daily. I take mine around the block, works every time

[@kieransewell659]

The effort you put into your videos show mate keep up the hard work ❤💪

[@BlackLines]

Old Volvos needed to be up to 15mph on all four wheels (not enough to put it in gear on jackstands) for the ABS lights to go out ... just give it a belt up the road when it gets dark.

[@miroslavmihaylov2249]

Check if the sensors are the correct ones for the sport version.They could be shorter and not reaching the abs rings.

[@VOXCID]

So good I can’t stop checking for a new one

[@adriancope6557]

I'm not sure but there may be a speed sensor on the gearbox as well I had a car that had same issue worth having a check there

[@LukeHolland-x1i]

Common fault on the Suzuki swifts are the speed sensor in top of the gearbox I went through 1 on my 1.3 diesel and 3 sensors on my 1.2. Try that

[@tylerjaymetcalfe654]

Put the car on its wheels and go up and down the road with it, with the car being up in the air both front wheels will be turning at a different speed causing the lights on the dashboard and lack of Speedo, the car just needs to calibrate itself up and down the road should hopefully help the car recalibrate itself Hope this helps

[@Ghamcar]

Well done for sticking with it , hang in there bro

[@1090danny]

Well done mate you cleared some codes 👏😂

[@ThisisJoshh]

I would personally try a abs pump.. you’ve changed the 2 sensors what read the speed and bearings what read the speed I remember you mentioning the abs pumps have issues to. Try a second hand pump or even a second hand set of clocks to narrow it down. Looks like it’s gonna be a trail and error process until you find it 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’m evening searching Google myself 😂

Jesse, Speedo works off of the gearbox speed sensor on these mate, get a genuine one though, they are cheap from the dealer 👍🏼

The sports don’t have gearbox speed sensors mate all works from the abs ring

[@kerbsidemobilemechanic]

@@JesseCollinghamah ok, I’ve just had a swift in for similar issues and was gearbox speed sensor, hope to see it fixed in next video pal 👍🏼

[@TheMjw123]

We all hate problems with cars does the car have a esp switch some swifts do try holding that down for 5 seconds see if that helps only other thing it could be is a faulty wire which will mean a auto electrician will need to have a look or the abs unit will be faulty and if you get it tested check the brake pressure sensor,you have probably checked all of this just trying to help you out hope you get this issue sorted

[@jayhow997]

Check the rear wheel speed sensors especially the drivers rear where the car took a hit.

[@andrewbaird9670]

Jesse I think the wheel speed picks up from the passenger side and when it's up on stands it will only spin the drivers side wheel if you slowly stop the wheel with your fool the passenger side wheel will spin and should pick up wheel speed

[@zeeshanfraz3603]

Sorry to see the abs still an issue mate, but great to see your dad on your channel ❤

[@marhanrob3043]

You might have something wrong with the ecu or a blown abs fuse maybe check to of these if it is the ecu might need to remap the ecu to do something with the abs because i had a van with the exact same problem and had no other solution to fix until a friend of mine who is a mechanic told me to remap the ecu as there is nothing else to do.

[@whatsdavedone104]

You need to drive the car for the abs to recalibrate. Did you actually remove the plug from the cluster and plug it back in or just give it a wiggle?

[@JesseCollingham]

Remove & plug back in

[@xgouldiex]

You need to fix the speedo sensor (normally in gearbox) as the abs needs to know the speed to work

[@VagaBond_268]

I know the feeling. I bought a used car. They good that it had a blown head gasket. I replaced all the gaskets, and thought I'd be done.... Nope Next, I doubt I had to change the high pressure fuel pump, common rail fuel sensor, and injectors Thought that was it.... Nope.... Now my connecting rod bearings needs to be changed.... I also changed my exhaust cam and lifters, and refurbished the engine starter I've stuck with it, got this car is training me to be patient

[@squirrel6158]

buddy if the speedo ant working could be linked to the ABS , i feel it might be a dash issue with spedo

[@arvilskristovskis8919]

Car hase to move, and in live data you should have also abs sensor speed. It's enough to turn the wheel by hand ,to find out which sensor is faulty. But ,I think, nothing is wrong, just need to DRIVE WITH 4 WHEELS

[@JTFC77]

Get the abs pump tested it's a common failing part on the swift you don't know how long it's been on the car I've worked on a few of these and in most cases it doesn't show when you scan the car hope this helps 👍

Cars are a nightmare. Give it a run on a “private road” to about 20 mph if all is working fine the abs should reset itself. Hopefully it doesn’t cost you too much to fix if not 😫 sometimes you win sometimes you lose. Fix it sell it and move on and don’t let it get you down 💯👍

[@juddaas08]

What happened to the golf with the blown turbo ??

[@Neil_phoenix]

Also as much as you can see the live data for the vehicle does your scan tool allow you to show individual wheel speeds? As you will have speed sensors on the back also.

[@JesseCollingham]

Sensors are working on the back

Its not been the worst purchase, you are doing what we call in the trade 'Parts Darts' and hoping it fixes the issue. Its called learning and it may help googling the fault code to get some ideas and doing some more in depth diagnosis rather then guessing and wasting money on parts you may not have needed. Take it as a learning curve and push on from here.
