hi, i am having problems with the useless freelander, it is a 1.8 51 plate. it is showing the 3 amigos so far i have replaced break light switch, checked all wiring to the hdc, and checked all fluids. no problems there. decided to remove the sensors and tidy them up.
before replacing the sensors i thought i would check them with an ohmmeter and this is driving me crazy. each sensor was read 490 ohms when i tested them. put them back in place and tested from the abs block two were reading 490 ohms and two were reading 13500 ohms. on removing these two that read 13500. i tested them again and they were reading 490 ohms.
thought imust have taken the wrong ones of, so back to the car to test and they were reading 490 ohms. i have since found that all 4 sensors at some point will read either 490 ohms or 13500 ohms ( 3hrs with an ohm meter and different colour tape to mark them).
the question is what should the readings be. surely i cant have 4 duff sensors giving exactly the same wrong readings (especially at £200 a sensor)
any help would be appreciated
thanks
