I think Emd is referring to my comments on Webby's ABS sensor wiring repair, entombed with insulation tape ;D

I could incriminate myself if I said I repaired SWMBO's Hyundai's ABS sensor the same way.

.......... I'd dig an even bigger hole if I said I'd used a long bar on the crank pulley bolt to undo the bolt but got the direction arse about face when I kicked the engine over on the starter ..... hence the need to repair the ABS sensor wire.   ::)  ::)  ::)

If I break the brake pad wear sensor, or, if it has already been snapped off by a previous mechanic/neanderthal.........do I need to replace it?

I'm really not bothered unless it is essential.  :y

No. Chop the white end off, bare back the two wire ends & twist them both together. Wrap up in insulation tape and then cable tie to the ABS wiring  ::)  ;) ;)

Dont let Aaron here you say that  ::) ;D :-X

i would hope he was equally scathing of tying it to the ABS sensor too  ::) ............


I'd buy a new sensor (there's only one on Dr O's car anyway! - the tight bugger  ;) ;) )

With money too tight to mention a new sensor may be a step too far. ;D ;D

If I had the money that  has Mr B....eanz has then I would buy a dozen of the little blighters. :D

I know that feeling... mine financially costs as much to fuel as the Omega and is less comfortable (for me) :-\

Note to self: next Merc I get must have Orthopaedic front seats, even if it's the only option fitted :-X

Back on topic, haven't you fitted them yet... ::)
