Drove the car for a day and determined the driver side was just as bad. Didn't have the time or energy to do it so I had my mechanic do the job. Guess what- The speedo stopped working. OK, figured both ABS senors were bad, got two new ones from bmw, put on the car and the all the problems still exist no abs/tc/speedo.
So in my mind the only thing left is that both the one I put in and the one my mechanic put in went in backwards. One side is orange and one is black, I assumed that the black side was the side with the magnet or whatever the abs sensor communicates with.
Fucking frustrating.

Did you ever figure this out? I just ran into the same problem with my rear left sensor and F A G bearing. Shop did the work. I verified Red Seal out. I even changed my sensor. Suffering the same ABS light as you. Really don't want to waste time swapping another bearing. Then again, hate driving with error lights.
Hopeful you found a solution.
Let me know. Thanks in advance! |
I believe the magnetic strip on the bearing, which is a black ring, needs to face the inside.
