If the sensor is seized in then jack up and secure the car on that side.
Remove the roadwheel and then the brake caliper and brake disc.
Knock off the grease cap and unstake the wheel bearing nut, remove it then pull off the flange with the bearing.
You can then hammer the sensor out with a drift - it is just to the left of the stub axle in the photo.
As Mr Haynes often says; refitting is the reverse of dismantling, be careful to clean any rust from the backplate, sensor mounting and hole before fitting the new sensor - if it doesn't locate far enough in and the air gap between it and the magnetic reluctor ring in the bearing is too big you can get problems at low speeds. Excessive rust on the back plate may damage the magnetic reluctor itself.
Tightening torque settings are disc torx bolt 33NM, brake calliper to hub bolts 64NM, hub nut 210NM then staked and roadwheel bolts 125NM.

Hi Mike.
Great photo how to, I am going to replace one of the rear ABS sensors either today or over the next couple of days so will also take a few photo's of how to remove the ABS sensor with a drift if the sensor will not pull out, therefore these pics will be helpful cheers Arctic.
