Abs Issue - Andy25 - 27-09-2023
Afternoon Gentlemen
So ABS light came on last week - no big deal reset after switching Bike on and offÂ
Then day later on again this time speedo reads about 30 mph max - once again managed to reset but this time needed to disconnect battery !
Now its back on again speedo still not working properly - but if I put High Beam on it reads 0 mph no matter how fast I"m
goingÂ
No obvious error codes
Red key is somewhere Safe ! ( Moving House this weekend so might take a day or 2 to find it ! )
So now the questionsÂ
Â
ABS sensor - how does it come out ? does wheel need removed ? ( though might be a case of give it a clean ? )
It appears to have a bolt holding it in but even after removing that bolt - Sensor still solidÂ
Had a look at Fowlers - these parts are costly - so don't want to start ordering sensors etc unless I have too
Â
Personally I'm not fussed about the ABS system - ( I can put a bit of tape over that bloody bright red light ) its more the Speedo that bothers MeÂ
Had a look at JBX site also a quick sweep of Carpe - a few mentions but lacking the details that I wantÂ
Â
CheersÂ

How I do mine....
Â
Heldi in by 1 bolt.
Wheel does not need removal
A gentle tap on the tang the bolt goes through to rotate the sensor in its housing and then remove the sensor by pulling like you were defusing a bomb.
Â
Simples if it's not corroded in ala BMW. I think the 1300 yam sensors are the same but not sure anymore
Prone to corrosion if not part of your service routine. If it is stuck by corrosion - good luck and iI'm not responsible for anything you break.
Â
When / if you remove the sensor take care not to bash the magnetic sensor end and clean it before assembly keeping the grease off the sensor end.

Well a not so gentle tap got some movement eventually Â
But No way is that coming out easily Â
looks like its corroded inÂ
Wonder if leaving the bolt out will help it vibrate loose  :hide:

I tried Favs method but the bracket ended up spinning on the sensor. Proper stuck.

Not sure what to do now - this has the potential to be bloody expensive

Strangely the ABS light issue has resolved its selfÂ
At my new House there is a path of uneven crazy paving which I rode the bike over to park it whilst moving in
the Same thing I did the day before it went faulty  :unsure2:
Sounds stupid but No issues since then so been fine for past couple of daysÂ
Â
Think Ill just park on the Street for a bitÂ
