Ok, I had a sensor issue. Said passenger or left sensor on planet (can't remember the wording now) & I replaced this sensor with a used one I had.
It then changed its mind and said drivers side abs sensor, so I ordered 2 new ones.
Have fitted them and now thw abs light & handbrake light is coming in.
Nightmare, any clues on what to do?
Havent got access to planet atm and wondering what to do next, short out the brake level sensor?
I havent got the little covers for the ABS sensors if this makes any odds?

There is one different ring i have figured out from when I changed the cv joint.
Im going to fit the old joint again and see if it goes away, the cables are all connected up ok etc.
Abs unit plug is fine, was really clean & the fuse was fine also.
Will report back when I sort it but needed a car with MOT so bought a run around for a while.

OK changed the ring, and changed the rear left sensor (for an old spare, with a partly damaged cable).
Got myself a copy of planet so no longer waiting around on a friend to help out, as he was too busy the majority of the time. Its now saying rear left wheel speed sensor, which i know the cable is damaged on, so i have ordered a new one.
Will update with the progress for anyone interested.
