calling corey872

Hey corey872 did you ever solve that abs speedo problem with your bronc? I am in the process of replacing the rotors and I noticed on my left tire ABS wheel sensor so far there was a little piece of metal stuck to the sensor (it wasn't flat). I'm thinking this might have messed with the tone ring. I haven't finished the brakes yet so I havn't checked to see if it fixed it.

It's been so dang cold I haven't really messed with it anymore. Someone posted about a bulletin which said that the rear bearings can wear out and the ring can loose it's clearance tolerance with the sensor. Upon a second look at the old sensor I took out:



I see one place where the body is dented (lower left arrow) and another place where it is scuffed (upper right arrow). I know that with my truck, the speed signal comes from this sensor alone. Are you talking about a front wheel ABS sensor? I don't think the speedo readout actually comes from those, but maybe if you had a bad one it could affect the rest of the system?

Let me know how it turns out!
