ABS/ Speed Sensor

[Pyle]

I was hoping to find my OP so I could add to it, but anyway. I know what is wrong with my ABS, need a new harness. I was told to try and clean the connection first, how? Is there a solvent of some sort, or just scuff them up a bit? Also, if that works, will the lights go off and the ABS magically start to work, or do I have to go in and have the codes reset?

Edit: wasn't trying to be rude, just that the question asked was already answered on the other threads as well.

scuff them up...and get some contact cleaner and dielectric grease. The ABS *should* just start working on its own but otherwise, just disconnecting the battery for a minute would be sufficent to clear the codes.

OK, this is wierd. I got the car in summer of '04 and the ABS/ trac has never worked once since then. Suddenly as of a couple weeks ago, I come out to jump in my car and the ABS and trac control system are working! They work for about a minute, usually when I shift from reverse to drive, and then stop working again. Since I got a car wash, with underbody flush (hey it's cold out I'm not handwashing when it's 10 out,) it hasn't worked. Could there have been something that got up there and formed a connection... salt perhaps. The mechanic told me it was a bad harness, not the sensor itself.

well pull teh wheel, unplug all the sensors, use a wire brush and mabie some kero, and clean up the connections then coat it in some dielectric grease and put it back together.
