your ABS sensors are on the back of each front wheel hub & on the wheel end of each rear drive drive shaft.
The ABS ECU is incorporated into the ABS modulator under the bonnet ..... pretty sure there's a maintenance section guide over removing it to send away for repair.  :y

your ABS sensors are on the back of each front wheel hub & on the wheel inboard end of each rear drive drive shaft.
The ABS ECU is incorporated into the ABS modulator under the bonnet ..... pretty sure there's a maintenance section guide over removing it to send away for repair.  :y

Fixed. ;)
