Can't be the only one to have had this problem don't really want to take it to Renault as I don't need another mortgage to pay for the repairs.

Do Renault change ABS sensors when they change discs?

 

hi
no they dont. new short cables are about £35 or so.
its probably just a bad electrical connection or the sensor not seated right.

have you lost the speedo reading ???
the NearSide one is dualled with the speedo, the Offside isnt.

just pull the wheel off and refit the sensor on the hub and check the cable path across the lower arm to the wheel arch, and under the plastic cover where the main connector is located.

both front cables are the same part number.

 

Just fitted new brake pads and discs to the rear of a 54 Scenic grand, now the problems have started all over again.

Have you had previous trouble with the ABS warning light?

....the brakes work fine and there's no skidding so I'm guessing the ABS is working too.

As far as I'm concerned if the ABS warning light is staying on the ABS system isn't working can you say for sure that the car doesn't skid and that the ABS system is working?

I found the best way to test the ABS was to find either a gravel surface or a loose surface like waste ground, you need to get up to about 30 mph then if you brake hard you will feel the brake pedal pulse as the ABS works, different cars give different feelings through the peddle.

Did the warning light come on as soon as the new discs were fitted or a day or so after?


Cheers.

 

Well got rid of the ABS light and then a brake warning light came up and couldn't find a problem so decided to check the brake system and something made me look at the brake fluid in the dark.

Seams that due to checking the level in the day time I must have gotten a shadow and mis-read the level. filled it up and everything is working (for now)

thanks for all the help and ideas, now to sell it before something else goes wrong

 

Have you checked for water on the passenger side footwell? Water can run in and under the passenger seat where the main wiring harness is located under the seat
