Re: Easy way to figure out the bad ABS sensor

So basically you just eliminated the middle (broken) connector by soldering the wires together? I have had the same problem for a while.

So here is what I did.

The connector is on the driver's side between the gas tank and the frame. First I removed the left rear tire for easier access. Then I disconnected the wire at the differential (there is a connector there too). I then removed every fastner there was so I could completely remove the wire that was from the differential to the broken connector. I then cut the old connector off and solder the wires. I then solder the other end that was still connected to the car. After both were good to go, I solder them together. Shrinked the tube I put on and reconnected it to the differential. Refasten everything and put the tire back on. Took it for a short drive like 3 houses down the street and the light went off. Now no more light.

Thanks 2eye and everyone else for the tips and help.

I have learned a lot from this site and plan to help in any way I can.
