Info help needed on ABS sensors

Hi Pete

Pleased that you finally got the MOT.
Post any items where you think they go best on the site.
The Mods can always move stuff around but seldom need to.

Hi Pete

I was interested in you comment that the stud is shown as a separate item.
Will try removing it when I find my spare rack.

I could not get that stud off, have the old rack here if you want it to break it up more into its components. did you find any of those struts blocks ends

Not so far.
Searching the storage unit only works when I can remember which heap it went into.

lol john your as bad as me now which pile did i throw it on

My check showed that when installed the coil face of the Teves rear sensor is 1mm further from the ABS toothed ring than a correctly set Bendix one.
That must reduce the quality of the signals sent to the ECU.
The Bendix sensor coil is double wound for increased signal strength so signal strength must have been considered critical with the Bendix ABS ECU.
It may well work but how well at low speed when signal strength reduces anyway.
