ABS was last working about 9 months ago. Christmas tree light was intermittent for about a week and then never went away.

No other new codes have popped up. Just the usual CEL for 02 sensor and like 5 airbag codes.


I haven't checked the wiring diagram yet but I'm wondering if this sensor goes directly back to the ABS control unit and if the ABS control unit is losing/distorting the signal for this sensor.

Sadly that’s my prime suspect. The faulty design of bond wires wreaks havoc over any possible input. Typically "implausible wheel speed" even with sensors that actually show the speed.

Hey Andrew. I noticed in another thread you said that the foxwell NT520 can code ABS modules. I remember there being 3 options in the ABS service menu: steering angle recalibration, yaw sensor recalibration, and I can't remember the 3rd option. Was it ABS module coding?

Hypothetically, if I pick up a new ABS module, I should be able to code it this way? Can anyone confirm this or do I need another software to code the ABS module?

I've swapped modules but only when identical model. I only had to re-calibrate the SAS to get things working. I haven't gotten any solid feedback that it is possible to code the abs module. It would of course be the most useful info.
