VW ABS Wheel Speed Sensor Fault - T5 Transporter FIXED!!

[@simonedwardscamera]

Really helped me out. Great video. One point to make is that the back of my hub had a cover on it “protecting” the reluctor ring so had to level that off to then punch the remains of the sensor through. Thanks!

Thanks for watching, good tip about the cover, mine was missing or never there. 👍

I did my speed sensor a few years ago. I drove it out from the bottom rather than trying to lever it out. Just a point, when you tested the wiring, you didn’t load the circuit. So you still could have had a problem with the wires. You could have had some resistance on the wire which won’t show on an unloaded circuit.

I tried from the top first as some times it works then drove it out from the bottom, as some vehicles don't have easy access to the bottom of the sensor so you have to get it from the top. Re the wiring the voltage was on the low side but I ignored it, 2 days later I'm doing a abs wiring video. 🤣👍

Do you have to clear the fault code or would it clear itself? I've just done my sensor and now have the handbrake/fluid level light flashing and 3 beebs. Didn't have that before changing the sensor. I've known some cars/vans to clear the fault once fixed.

​@@50plusdad-uk Hi, My rear right just snapped so am thinking driving it out from the bottom. Does the rubber gator easily come off. VW T6 mine is

@@50plusdad-uk Didnt even notice a rubber gator so googled and found a possible way. Too dark to go back on drive now lol

@rainbowgecko9395 no gaiter on mine, get a punch just smaller than the sensor and knock it up from the bottom. Clean the hole before putting the new one in.👍
