Greetings everyone .

I have a slight problem with my front abs sensors , after fitting new sensors the ABS warning light is on.

Since the original sensors had broken cables I'm wondering if I've bought the wrong type of sensors to replace them.

I have an 06 plate 1.4 desire, is there anyway of finding out if I should need passive or active sensors.

Did you have a fault before changing the sensors?

What fault did you read and what equipment did you use to read the error code.

PM me the VIN and I can tell you the part number for the correct ABS sensor, but an motor factor can tell you the right part to fit.

Have you tried Euro Car Parts, by Reg number (here) for parts?

The abs fault is saying no communication . I didn't get to get a screen shot as not my lexia

Had both front springs break so had to rebuild front end .
Didn't have any error codes before that.
Will have to look at the vin number when it gets light as it's in the garage
