Perfect example of how a video should be made . Easy step by step and simple techniques which makes me come back to your videos for all my repairs. Well done .
You didn't see his beginings. We supported him, but I couldn´t understand half a video, because I´m not native speaker, also. His english is pretty fine now! Improved a lot.
I like a video where they use an actual older vehicle as the example. Most videos use a new car, everything fairly clean and easy to fix. This is a real-world situation like most of us would find. Rusted hub where sensor mounts, trying to fix something late at night with a flashlight, and not always all the perfect tools for the emergency job. That's why it's DIY. Well done!
Just watched this great video I have a 2006 honda crv suddenly the ABS and 2 other lights are showing on the dash I bought a used ABS module but after seeing your video I think is just a matter of cleaning the sensor I'll try that first. Thank you for your video.
Yeah, some parts are really pretty rusty out there, I think You definitely can fix them up and running pretty well - thnx Peter 👍At least its pretty nice that wheel bearings is still in good conditions.
Nice video by Peter Finn. Taking ones time and dealing with the little details is the key to getting to the desired result. "It can´t be nothing. It must be totally clean". How true.
Tip: When bolts break off and sensor can not be removed, drill right through them with closest sized drill bit to size of sensor. Remove any residue left in hole and make sure no material gets trapped between teeth on sensor ring. Take new sensor and apply a 1/4in ring of silicone sealer on new sensor's base and place sensor all the way down until it is flush with hub surface. Let silicone dry for about 20 minutes and reconnect wire as required. If you ever have to pull sensor out again, it will come out easily since no dirt or rusty bolt will be holding it in place. Never had one pop out, even on off road vehicles.
@@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor cleaned the front with no luck turns out it's the rear left abs sensor ring that needs replacing. Nightmare of a job! Videos are brilliant tho thank you!
I have a problem. On my 1996/7 Volvo S40 I cannot pull the wire out of the sensor. I have the whole wheel hub together with the ABS wiring from a 98 car from a junkyard but I cannot pull the wire out of that one either. Any tricks on how to do it on old, more rusted cars? Can you use certain chemicals to help it wiggle out or will that damage anything? The ABS light is constantly on, the whole system has disabled itself. The speedometer and odometer work though. The ABS system stopped working after a wheel bearing replacement job.
This video should be viral.HollyWood could'nt make this.Dracula fixing a cars ABS fault at night.He speaks exactly like dracula his tone rate and speed.Dang it's night time dark he films it in high quality video with a led shop light.Really a great short video
What vehicle was this done on... as I have a Subaru Impreza with eminent ABS warning light coming on along with the Traction light, very annoying hoping to clean the ABS and this will solve the issue???
I agree. I was having a very bad day. I got a little insight and also some comic relief all in one. So this was very helpful in two way. Also as someone who can only speak english language, but also with an accent (southern) I always marvel at those who can speak it when it is not their native language. I also always appreciate anyone who does try, even if they can barely.
Do you know the size of the bolt that Toyota uses on their wheel sensors? I have a 2000 Lexus with a broken off bolt in the knuckle. I have to drill out and re-tap. Is it M8 X 1.25. ?
Peter my 1998 e36 318is was very very rusty. The bolt had rounded off and the sensor snapped with half still in the assembly. How do i get the half of the sensor out? thank you
I have this problem and need to take my car for an MOT I am now happy to go let it fail on the light and get the breaks done :) this has been really helpful as my Haynes manual had nothing on this.
On old cars i find the abs sensor often breaks trying to remove it. Or those little bolts snap. If it doesn't want to come out loosen the axle nut and push the shaft back enough to see the ring and wash it that way. Also check if it's cracked or loose.
can a bad wheel bearing cause abs to come on? I have not got around to replace the rear driver side bearing but wondering if the rubbing and all the noise bad bearing make be the cause, braking is fine traction is fine as I have tried to make the car lose controls but traction will not allow the car to lose control, traction light is on too.
Did this fix your problem. I changed the wheel bearing in a 2013 Nissan rogue the The shield on the new one came off and cut the speed sensor off. When I took the old one off I twisted the bolt off holding the sensor so I did what the guy before you did and used the self tapping bolt to hold it in but my abs system isn't working I'm lost on what the problem could be. The New bearing, new sensor or something else I'm going to try to do this next. Thanks for the info
not sure if my question is answered since i am trying to buy rotors for my kia rio but this is a porsche! so i must inspect what is on my car to see if i find anything like this. somehow i had a different idea of how abs is supposed to operate and my car's abs does act strange sometimes.
I just went through this job and believe me, you need to pull the hub off to do a thorough job cleaning the ring gear and backing plate. Plug the bearing races and power wash the ring gear and inside of hub.. Lots of places for magnetic trash and metallic dust to hide. After my first attempt of pulling sensor and cleaning gear through the hole, the ABS light returned in a few miles. I pulled the sensor again and it had a full beard of magnetic dust again. Time to pull the hub and get serious. Power wash hub interior (with bearing area sealed off) and backing plate. Dry with compressed air at full force.
Man is anyone thinking like what I'm thinking that he sounds like Sesame street Count Dracula. Either wise that's a great video, will check it out on my car thanks.
Hello ,Thank you for the video ,sensor was in same location on my 04 Volvo ,My question is ... is it normal for abs sensor (Volvo) to have wear marks .... I checked wheel bearings forplay and was none (3 and 9 and 12 and 6 o'clock ) replaced sensor fine for a day code came back reset again todaywith Volvo scan tool. so far the code hasn't come back...
My abs light came on twice yesterday. I think I will do some cleaning. I will check if my Dremel has some sort of small wire brush that fits inside the sensor hole, this way I can use the dremel while rotating the shaft to clean the abs ring all around without taking the disk and hub assembly off.
Good video but the comments make it sound like a chat room. Question friend, did that fix the problem? Also, was the sensor riding on the Tone Ring / Reluctor. Mine has a beveled / rounded shape on my rear sensors and now have two codes cuz I messed with the other passenger side. P1774 and P1775. The sensor is not supposed to touch the reluctor right. Thanks, Great video!
Thanks for posting, but did the sensor ring cleaning work? Presumably you had an ABS fault message? I'm trying to resolve an ABS fault message from the right hand rear wheel of my 2002 Volvo V70XC and the ABS sensor ring is difficult to clean as it's concealed and only accessible by removing the sensor and inserting a small file into the sensor hole and you can't see what you are doing. Any advice would be appreciated thanks.
same question: my '92 240 pump kept running with ignition off. whacked it on top, but worried about the relays. anyone? anyone have a source of new sensors?
Peter Finn, I hope you did not take offence at my comment. You have a distinct accent which reminds me of Western European, the lighting in the video and the cadence in your voice almost made it seem the repair was done in secret. (made the video entertaining) My ABS light went on in my van the other day and your fix should be what a DIY person should attempt. I used your method.

He doesn't play music loud over his talking , and I found him easy to understand . And makes it simple .
Great info and Thank You. :-)
I feel ya man, I hate the videos with all the dang music, I need information, not entertainment.
Perfect example of how a video should be made . Easy step by step and simple techniques which makes me come back to your videos for all my repairs. Well done .
Glad you liked it!
Peter, I appreciate your easy to see and understand videos. You have saved me a lot of money by allowing me to repair these things myself. BRAVO!!
I appreciate how well this video is hard this guy is helping trying very hard in English brilliant video
Thanks. :-) I really appreciate your comment.

Thanks for posting this great diy video. Saved me some 💰
A proper mechanic that gets to the route cause of the issue and doesn't just say "It's the ABS control module mate, that'll be £100!"
Just watched this great video I have a 2006 honda crv suddenly the ABS and 2 other lights are showing on the dash I bought a used ABS module but after seeing your video I think is just a matter of cleaning the sensor I'll try that first. Thank you for your video.
Thanks, Peter. Very clear and informative. I haven't touched these ABS parts since they were invented!
Thank for feedback. :-)
Same do I, because still there is no reason for that. ☺
Great video. Easy to understand. Keep up good work.

The ABS light is constantly on, the whole system has disabled itself. The speedometer and odometer work though. The ABS system stopped working after a wheel bearing replacement job.

Love this guy on many videos....very helpful...shoocket

Thank You, :-)
Do you know the size of the bolt that Toyota uses on their wheel sensors? I have a 2000 Lexus with a broken off bolt in the knuckle. I have to drill out and re-tap. Is it M8 X 1.25. ?
Hi, I believe that standard sensor. Please visit the tire shop.
hello, a little late to the party, But can I use some carb cleaner or brake cleaner on the inside wheel?
Peter my 1998 e36 318is was very very rusty. The bolt had rounded off and the sensor snapped with half still in the assembly.
How do i get the half of the sensor out? thank you

Good comment and Let's All folk discuss more 👍😀
Hi thanx alot for the tip.. can i use brake cleaner spray or wd40 to clean the sensor if it's very dirty n rusty?
Yes
Hi Peter,
Wasn't it easy to use a small wire brush which can be rotated to clean the ring?
Yes, it should be good idea. :-)
Your voice is so familiar, you sound like Count Dracula from the Sesame Street 😂 thanks for the video bro 👌🏻
Lots of people have made this joke, I can count 1 person, 2 persons, 3 persons ah ah ah
🧛🏻♂️
this guys helped me out a lot today with my rear brakes and hopefully this video will help me out with a current ABS light perminantly on
thanks
Did it work to get rid of the problem?
Thanks for your helpful video!
Glad it was helpful!
thank you for showing where the sensor is located. I am having dashboard indicators flashing ABS warning. this video really helps.

Great comment, I appreciate your feedback. And please All discuss this topic ! 👍😀
In other way, you can use carburetor/throttle body cleaner. Just spray at the area that have dirt/debris.

Nah only a plum like you thins that.
You've got one of the easy ones! On my Chevy Trailblazer the brakes and rotors have to come off.
Noted 👍
Can you tell me what is the car in this video, i need to do the same thing on my peugeot 307 sw. Excellent video btw :)
Tnx
I have been advised at MOT my sensor housing port needs changed..Megane mk2 gt turbo. Looking for information on the difficulty & cost of the job
Ok and thanks. 👍😀

Hi, Volvo use Ford parts and Ford parts are weak. Sorry, but I avoid Ford.

Thanks for comment. :-)
I didn't understand a word he said, but the video helped me clean my abs sensors.......go figure.
Hey Pete, can you show us how to clean fangs next? We've just been Turned about a week ago...

Hi, please use tester. It tells the accurate part
Thanks bro. My Camry it's dead speed sensor LH. Me need repair or clean this job. Love is Kazakhstan. What? Sorry, me not a guy
thanks for the effort keep it up
Hello, Thanks for comment. :-)
Hello, what is the gap between the senser and the relucted wheel? are all vehicals the same?
Same gap
My speedo has stopped working on my Astra mk4, could this possibly solve the problem ?
Well, maybe
Awesome video. Thank you.
👍
hi there I am watching about your abs sensor lights how much to replace its my left front one
Hello, and many thanks for your comment. :-)
Dellas Manuel this is showing you how to clean your abs sensor, which might fix your issue.
handyman bolt-Love your video
Good comment 👍
Good job sir keep it up
Do the ABS sensors have anything to do with Traction Control system?
Yes. Same stuff
Yes this is the video i am waiting for
Can a faulty wheel sensors cause the abs pump module to run continuously, even with engine off and key removed? Also..AWESOME VIDEO!!!
Yes
same question: my '92 240 pump kept running with ignition off. whacked it on top, but worried about the relays. anyone? anyone have a source of new sensors?
How i can appreciate your effort i have no word👌
Who's fixing this car!? Dracula !!!??? Loved it.
Yeah ! Here is the Man, what likes beef.
Peter Finn, I hope you did not take offence at my comment. You have a distinct accent which reminds me of Western European, the lighting in the video and the cadence in your voice almost made it seem the repair was done in secret. (made the video entertaining) My ABS light went on in my van the other day and your fix should be what a DIY person should attempt. I used your method.
ha,ha,ha
DeWALTer_White: i like this video. It is well done and the guy is trying hard to give the best tech explanation in english, which is not his native language.
Question is, how good we are to give same explanation in another language that is not ours.
Anyway we agree: Great job with this vid. Peter, thanks!
