ABS trouble


Most ABS faults relate to the wheel speed sensors, the wiring or the physical condition of the system.
This Ford Puma was no exception, the pedal pulsed when driving, the ABS warning light was illuminated, and it was clear the vehicle had sustained some damage recently.
A quick look at live data showed one wheel speed sensor dropping out occasionaly, but why?
No need for scopes here the front left wheel speed sensor wiring had been damaged but not repaired when the panels had been replaced after a minor RTA. New sensors are expensive so a repair to the wiring loom was the option taken by the customer.
