TrisK Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 sensordoes the abs actually work? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yep will be a sensor 1 of mine went last year. Get yourself a multimeter and test them. Buy 1 from some one who is breaking they are expensive me in my infinate knowledge got it from toyota cost me about 125 wont be making tht mistake again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hawwy Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yes mine works sometimes it dont come on to like after 20 min driving wheere are the sensors anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Sensors are in the hubs theres a thick black wire comes out and will go up behind the arch liners follow it up and unplug it use a multimeter on the 2 pins and spin the wheel if you get a reading then they are working do this to all 4 to check the sensors.

LeeroyV Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 damn the dreaded abs light.... check all sensors first mate.. yeh and they are fookin expensive from toyota.. if you fit a new sensor make sure you reset the fault codes then go for a spin and reset again if necessary as i had to reset 3 times before the light went out!!

Hawwy Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Okay but before earlier on today when ignition on i could hear abs pump before light went out for a bit.Now i can hear pump and light does not go out an stays in constantly so it must be pump side Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fraser280789 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 i had abs light but turned out i needed sensor.got one off someone on here and car is perfect again Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hawwy Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Do i have to use multimeter on the abs sensor side of the pins and spin wheel? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Aye use them on the abs sensor side of the wires and spin the wheels abs sensors work on a magnetic field so as they spin create their own current. So no current means their no working. Change over the faulty 1 if you cant get to diagnostics to reset it then jus drive it for haf an hour abs is self checking so should reset after a while anyway.

LeeroyV Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 have you done a fault diagnosis yet??? that should tell you where the problem lies and work from there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hawwy Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Can i use any diagnostic machine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 If you can get your hands on one obviously this is the best option. If not you will have to start by testing your sensors manually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Dont bother takeing it anywhere to get a diagnostic test save your self a few bob and do it your selfhttp://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showwiki.php?title=EFI+self-diagnosis+system Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Pretty sure thats for engine management bud not abs i could stand corrected though. Also dont think it would specify what sensor was broke either again i could stand corrected. Best way as i said get urself a jack and a multimeter n get your hands dirty ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
