Wheel arch liner separation

soixante-quinze · 2nd August 2015, 13:16

Driving today, had my front near-side (LHD) wheel arch liner separate from the body of the car. Wheel drove over it and ripped the wiring that was going to sprung components, namely ABS sensor and brake pad wear sensor. ABS light is now on and speedometer is no longer working. There are now 4 wires hanging off the body and 4 hanging off the sprung components. The ABS ones (very small gauge) are black and black on the wheel end and black/white, black/white on the body side with the connector still attached to this pair. The others are a bit of a problem in that the pair attached to the body are yellow and yellow/black but those going to the sprung components are yellow and orange (and appear to be a larger gauge as well) and there is no connector on either end. Anybody have any explanation and is there anything I have to be aware of when sorting?
