Hi David, it was the original I had to drill out.... I'm going to try to remove the new one next weekend and try filing a bit off the fixing lug, so it sits deeper into the holder, it's not an OEM.... failing that I'll just have to go through the tests until I solve it...... no speedo and a wonky fuel gauge for me this week!
Thanks for the advice all... :-) ( And the links ) |

Also ensure the mating faces are clean, i used some sandpaper ans a wide blde screw driver to clean the hub side, (there may be an earthing requirement?) but i am not sure) so don't quote me on that one, but the face needs to be clean too - it does affect some cars maybe not ours just from my experience this week. |

Forgot to update my thread and say thanks.... I couldn't get the ABS light off, so as I has a new wheel bearing tucked away, I had a local garage change it, along with another new ABS cable! Problem solved for £80 labour inc, so not to bad. EXCEPT
When I pulled into the garage early in the morning I clipped my rear drivers door on a parked car trailer = 2 deep indents and scratches onto the door & wheel arch as well Car going back to said garage next Monday for fix & panel spray... more Wonga gone |

More Abs woes....
Back in February I had problems with my ABS light, eventually I had a garage replace the drivers front wheel bearing & cable ( at least I think they replaced the wheel bearing!), all OK until a couple of weeks ago...
My speedo started to work intermittently, then my ABS light came on again. Now I have no speedo, a permanent ABS light and am miffed! I replaced the ABS cable today, but the light has not gone out and the speedo is still dead... and unlike the last time, I extracted the old lead without damaging it and having to drill out the remains! so no chance of damaging the bearing ......any suggestions on what I might check? Advice appreciated as always..... thanks ( MG ZT CDTi ) |
