Angry ABS Warning light

ABS warning light appeared.
Checked on OBD reader and it said left rear sensor.
After a struggle, removed old sensor and replaced with new.
Reset all fault codes but after very short drive warning light comes back on.
Where do I go from here ?

Rusty rear brake back plates can shed flakes of rust off which stick to the magnetic abs ring built into the rear wheel hub. You may need a new rear hub and the back plate might be saved by removing flakey rust and painted or you might need new ones.
Also if you've bought a cheap sensor they don't always work, best getting one from DMGRS who also rear hubs and back plates.

Hope this helps

Cleaning the ABS magnetic ring may not be enough, were there any marks on, it doesn't take much as I found out.
Do a search, there's plenty of threads, particularly Arctics, tbh I'm not the most knowledgeable person, just what I found out and from the Nano meets.
