ippy Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I changed an abs sensor cos the lite started flashing then eventually it stayed on and didn't go out this has been going on for ages it would sometimes not come on for weeks but now its on permanently so I changed the sensor, wot I wanna know is do I have to have the lite reset or am I going to have to change all of them? cos the lite is still on, I don't have a code reader to find out which 1 it is (cant find one that works with my car) 2003 tdci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 The ABS should self-test every time you turn the ignition on so it's likely there's another problem. If you're friendly with a local garage it's worth seeing if they'll stick their code reader on for a tenner or something. Must be some Ford related software for the Mk1.5 though, isn't there any that you can get for an ELM cable on those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Because it will be EOBD not OBDII an elm won't work (different protocols). It needs to be EOBD. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
