Thank you for your help...I just broke off my front ABS sensor on a Ford Transit 350. I thought I was done for. You Tube University to the rescue, your video was a great help.
Blowtorch + Screw until red hot then quickly screw in (carefully!) into the plastic broken part. Let it cool until hard, then slowly pull whole thing out
I had to replace an abs sensor on my 1998 BMW E36, had been putting it off for a while and I used your technique, works an absolute treat, your a life saver
Thank you for posting this great video, really helpful on those often fiddly rusted up sensors that have been there since the Titanic sunk,and like the ill Fated Ship, they're not budging!! please do continue posting more great videos, 🙂👍
Once again spreading your knowledge to us that have less Always grateful for you videos keep it up mate And merry Christmas to you and your family hope you have a good one mate
If you drill an additional, smaller hole towards the edge of the broken sensor, you relieve the vacuum behind it, making it much easier to pull it out with the screw.
Sounds like a good idea - you'd need to be very careful you don't damage the side of the hole, and that you don't introduce debris inside where the hub shaft is.
Just replaced my Abs sensor a week ago just drilled it out quickly not to wasting time putting a screw in there because it's too rusty and doesn't work like a charm.
You would have to replace your entire driveshaft just because of the sensor if you went too far? What kind of fucking engineering goes into that that’s absurd

2011 Tacoma sensor snapped off when removing it. Your fix worked PERFECTLY! Thank you so much!
Cheers from Vancouver, Canada. 🙂

This is great. Very clear. Worked like a charm. Bonus: Saved my neighbors from hearing me swear even more!
Great tip - looking to replace my ABS speed sensors on my VW Jetta....Having an issue removing the front right sensor...Thanks
Bless ya, luv - having this exact issue with a stuck sensor, didn’t think to try vice grips! Thanks!
Happy Christmas love love you videos from London
Small slide hammer gripped onto the screw works well too.
we need some of the launch uk here in the states. very impressive, thank you
I would love to work with you. I love the way you explain things ❤
Work exactly as described! Thanks neat trick!
Glad it helped!
Thank you very much. Life saving video
Glad it helped
another great video to watch. Thank You.
Glad you enjoyed it

Great, thanka😊
so i did this exactly the same way before watching this and the middle of it snapped out in a circle. so frustrating trying to drill it out now
Yea I screwed it up trying that cold, and now it's partly still in
Ood advice thanks
i broke the screw trying this now i have broken sensor and broken screw in the plastic..urgh
Did you type this in another video - your's is the 2nd one I've just read claiming to have broken the screw...
Should probably spray some brake cleaner to try cleaning out that hole
If they've been in for long enough they are a bastard to get out
