Tempted to buy these and fit some grommets where it needs to clip up if 400mm is long enough - Wabco
Very kind of you. Front measures 1090mmFrom memory, that's not long enough.
I have a spare pair of cheapy ones that I can measure for you when I get home if you like?
Bet they are made in China
I'm confused now, reading the above. Do you still need measurements?
My experience with aftermarket sensors differs from Datatek's, in my experience they have lasted anywhere between 1 month and 6 months a piece. God knows why as there are no moving parts to wear out. They all have ended up going open circuit sooner or later. Its only a magnet and a coil inside.Just ordered a couple of cheapies for the rears they already sent out the wrong ones last week so don’t bode well will post when fitted and tested
Hi there, no I don't - I've measured an old front one and its 1090mm but the book says 1100mm. I guess they are measuring from the tip of the socket to the centre of the stainless steel casing.I'm confused now, reading the above. Do you still need measurements?

Mine would have still been working fine 22 years later if I hadn't had to destroy them to renew the bloody balljoints after the MOT fail. The only thing I can surmise is that the coil windings must break easily on the aftermarket ones if the sensor measures zero ohms with a multimeter - maybe the cheapo coil can't cope with prolonged vibration - there's no excessive current or voltage to burn it out.Good post. I dread mine failing. I've had them out a few times but they're original and now 27 years old ... the old ones are the best!
Fronts are £190 each nowadays - crazy priceHere’s the old one end looks knacked to me the originals are about £450 a pop
No errors? Pushed all the way in?Now seems the fronts aren’t picking up any wheel speeds one new sensor on front aswell cheers as to where to go now
Never used a nanocom but why is it reporting vast differences between wheels in wheel speed ?Replaced the rear right sensor have got a new one for the left if needed but still getting abs traction lights on dash here’s the latest lot of results but nanocom says no faults
