Never really thought much of it until recently it came on and my speedo stopped working.
I got a new sensor and fitted it.
The light went out all good. I didn’t feel happy with how the breaking felt still. A little crunchy still.
Not long after driving the abs light came back on. I took it home and put the car on a basic code reader. It came up with code ‘17 – front right wheel speed sensor, line’.
So that’s the sensor I have just changed.
The plastic plug was broken so I found in my spares a spare wiring plug so I cut the old one off and soldered the replacement on. This made it worse. Light on and no speedo.
So I managed to get the old connector back on and the light stayed on but speedo working so that will do for now.
Took it to work this morning and the light wasn’t on but within 5 minutes of driving the abs light came back on and stayed on but speedo is still working.
Could anyone help with this as its getting very annoying.

Thank you.
Hi Josh.
it sounds like the sensor is playing up even though you have changed it, did you use a quality sensor, as some after market ones do not work.

I am told DMGRS sell decent ones that are supposed to work, also genuine ones from Rimmer bros.

Seeing as the speedo is working it is not pointing to the bearing at the moment, but are you getting any crunching of the brakes at low speeds 5/10mph if so then it could be the front bearing so do not rules that out.
