Recently I was doing some suspension work on the front drivers side of the car. I had to apply some lubricant(wd40) to loosen a nut and the lubricant(wd40) got inside of a abs sensor that sits right next to the hub assembly. Now I have the ABS light on and I thoroughly cleaned the sensor off but to no avail the light is still on.... Any suggestions/reccomendations? OR do I need to get a new sensor?

Probably need a new sensor...chalk that up to learners cost.

 

:grrr

 

Probably need a new sensor, I would chalk it up as a learners cost.

 

Need to find sensor:suicide:

 

Probably need to update the ******* server.

Piece of ******* ****.

 

x2.... on that. jesus christ.

 

Sensor is part of the wheel bearing/hub assembly.

I would make sure have a good clean electrical connection, before you replace a hub, and maybe actually find out if thats what the light is on for.......just a thought.

This is one more reason why WD40 should only be used for removing sticker redsidue.

 

I don't even use it for that anymore
My son raced karts and they would send us a case every year and the very best thing were the stickers shaped like a WD-40 can.
Very cool and fit right at the bottom of the stearing wheel faring.

 

ive had that problem with mine havent been able to find parts. besides at the stealership. if i remeber right its the wheel speed sensor.

 

The wheel speed sensor is integral to the hub/wheel bearing unit.

They are available online at at decent parts stores
