___ Do ABS sensors get rusted in place, OR WHAT ! ! !
Big mistake I made . .
Thought I'd slip one of my rear ABS sensors out of a '95 Odyssey. Two
bolts, clean and inspect, put back in and check the clearance. Not so.
Broke the steel plate off, sensor still wouldn't come out. Couldn't even
get the 'remains' out with a chisel and sledge hammer. Too bad it wasn't
mounted in a couple of O-rings instead of fitting 'snug'. The rust had
locked it in there permanently. I finally destroyed it one whack at a
time (without sacrificing the tone ring) and now I'm shopping for a new
sensor. Some things mortals should never mess with.
End of confession :-(

If it was that corroded, it was probably near failure.

Odyssey? Remove the underscores to reply if you do...

I'm sure someone does, depending on what years "gen 1" denotes.

Generation One was from 1995 thru 1998. I think it was available as
Isuzu Oasis until 1999
Anybody know of a wrecking yard that has an Odyssey siting around?
please contact me. Anywhere in North America would be fine...
