Further to previous post re Front Wheel Sensor(crunching noise when Braking)....Have just replaced the Sensor and took it for a test drive, all was well for a few miles when Braking then the ABS Light came on along with the Red Triangle even though there was no crunching noises!!, anybody any ideas as to the cause of that.Many thanks.

Where did the replacement sensor come from?

Used (2nd hand) off of another 900s from Saab spares/repairs/breakers,they only deal in Saabs. I did wonder about the sensor they supplied as when i checked the condition a few weeks ago of the one i just replaced it appeared to have a metal insert (although only a couple of mil long) protruding, well now theres just plastic and the replacement one is the same.

Since the sensor is what changed, that's certainly suspect. Short of that, you'll need a Tech 2 or similar device to pull the code and see what the issue is.

Don,t have tech 2 so will do the short wire trick from the obd plug and see what pops up.Thanks for the info.

I doubt you'll get any ABS codes doing that, only drivetrain (engin/transmission) codes.
