hi guys after fitting 3 brand new abs sensors to the car the abs light is still on brand new hubs on the back so a know the teeth are fine and i checked the abs rings on the front and they are fine any idea what could be wrong

Tried cleaning the ABS rings up front? Sometimes the sensors struggle to pick them up correctly if they are caked in shit.
Get a multimeter on the plugs for the ABS sensors and either spin a wheel (manually when the car is jacked up) or wave a magnetic screwdriver over the tip of the sensor and check for resistance. ![[Image: car-1.jpg]](http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k591/grant-306/car-1.jpg) Member of the 99% warning or you're nothing club 2000 Moonstone 1.8 Meridian - Sold 2000 China 3dr XS - Dead 1998 Diablo 3dr XSI

Wishes for more power...
