I'm no expert on these cars and have learnt all I know about them ( apart from there are a car with 4 wheels ( 5 with the spare ) and have a diesel engine etc etc etc ....... ) from this brilliant forum!!!!!!!!
anyways the sensor has a magnetic "finger" close to the slotted ring and when the wheel is turned the sensor wires cionnected to a digital multimeter set to a low range will show a read out showing that summut is happening.......a small generator? ac volts.........
the sensor winding has a resistance which I cannot remember the value of as I'm away from the manual which has that data written in it gained from members on here..........perhaps that's a start point.
if the system has sensed a skid ( jack one front corner and if safe run eng in gear to rotate wheel fairly quickly, apply brakes, abs light will come on ) drive the car some 15mph and the light will go out, if all is ok that is.......
