ABS Sensors

[Darrenaf]

Doing a bit a research, are the front and rear ABS sensor available from Ford anymore, if not what are the alternatives, my fronts a stuck in the hub and the plastic has gone, the rears have come out OK but again the plastic surrounds are not looking good.

Any Advise welcome Cheers.

I'm after a rear one as we speak ! as my abs light is on and iv been told its my OSR gone !!! mine our the same mate , all the plastic is coming off, to leave just the wires !!! Fordparts uk have told me no "rear" longer available But Ebay have one !!! To the tune of £250 large for one ......:headband: I mean i can cope with cosworth tax ..... but thats taking the piss

If someone had a contact to get some remade i reckon they would earn a right few quid as theres loads of demand for these.

[Darrenaf]

Has anybody tried other ones from the Ford range of a similar era

[mayo rs]

Scorpio or sapphire 4x4 ones will fit but you need to change the plug, hard to get good ones of those now to.

[normink]

Might be wrong, but think the Granada ones can be used if you change the plug end

Might be wrong, but think the Granada ones can be used if you change the plug end

Granada mk3 is also called Scorpio, here they was named Scorpio from 1985, but if I have understood correct, also this was called Granada in uk, only the "frog" was called Scorpio?

[Nick02]

Are we certain that the Sierra ones will fit just by changing the plug? I know someone who tried but the ABS light was still coming on on the dash... They said that apparently the impedance on the sensor is different.

Else the sierra ones they fitted might have been shagged too ?!?

[Barney Gumble]

Can someone post some pictures up of the sensors?

I'd be surprised if these are specific Ford sensors? Isn't it a Bosch ABS system? As such they are likely to be Bosch sensors and so probably the same in other manufacturers? Might be slightly different in length or connector?

I'd be happy to look through the 90s catalogue of ABS sensors for Vauxhall if you can get some pics up

Cheers

They are ATE sensors.

The black outer plastic that holds the alloy sleeve is repairable, I've done mine when I did my resto in 08.

[Dave]

I'm pretty sure they are available as a non genuine part

[palmeros]

I'm in Cyprus currently and fords here can get them for €230..

[Dave]

I hope that's for a set of 4

[Simon T]

gutting thing is that when we last moved house 12 years ago I binned at least 4 pairs of these, mixtures of fronts and rears that was after giving one set of 4 away.

Wish I'd have kept a few spares now.

Like Dave, i'm sure that non-gen ones can be sourced?
