Wanted osr abs sensor for 19 gti 8 valve

Post by SparkyB »

No one seems to have rear sensors. Does anyone know if it is possible to adapt a similar sensor as it's a passive ABS system.

Apparently Xantia ones can be adapted:

It's unlikely that your actual sensor will have broken though. The fault will probably be in the wiring between the rear arm and the rubber grommet under the seats. I recently replaced the wiring on mine with a bit of old guitar cable I had lying around - soldered it in place on the arm and used a block connector under the seat! I should probably have used something more substantial, but this should get it through the MoT at least...
