Re: Abs Sen-sore (subject)

[Dan Hamren <dan@magnitude-electronics.com>]

Yeah i put the caps on it and as soon as i would drive out of the driveway the
abs light would come on. I took the caps off then put them in all the way, and
backed them out a bit, it seemed to work better, but it still had a light abs
working at the end of a brake (1-5mph).
I was messing with them again put the caps back on then it was back to they way
it was when i first started having the problem.  then I was testing it and it
seemed that the tires were braking at different pressures. causing the car to
move a little side to side(scary)
I just want it fixed or scrap it all together.  Besides this is the first car
that I have owned that has ABS anyway!
