ABS sensors for CRV
My 97 CR-V ABS light is on. The dealer says both front wheel sensors need
to be changed for a price tag of $450 CDN. I inspected both sensors for any visual damage or dirt and both are in good condition. I measured the resistance of the driver side sensor and it showed 900 ohm which means it is not shorted. I could not access the passenger side plug. Does anyone know what are the values for resistance and AC voltage to be expected from the sensors for this vehicle. Can anyone here suggest non OEM ABS sensors that I can replace the existing ones with if need to be ? Thanks. |

What happens if you do not replace the sensors, other than you will not have
the ABS function? Tom. "Cythia" <CythiaDowe@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:b_9Kc.34549$TB3.1300108@news20.bellglobal.com ... > My 97 CR-V ABS light is on.

Does it only happen after you drive 50 feet, or before you start rolling? Do you get ugly noises doing a tight U-turn at low speed, in a paved parking lot? What's your mileage? Remove the underscores in my address if you want connect. I'm in western canada. We have a '98. 'Curly' |
Re: ABS sensors for CRV
Nothing happens really just an annoyance to see the ABS light on all the
time. This is my wife's car. I have a 92 Accord without ABS and never felt the need for it.

Re: ABS sensors for CRV
The failure is usualy due to a crack in the sender housing and is not always
seen when testing resistence unless you load it.(heat from a hair dryer or ice) "motsco_ _" <"motsco_ _"@interbaun.com> wrote in message news:40F9F565.4000009@interbaun.com... > Cythia wrote: > > My 97 CR-V ABS light is on.
