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.
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?

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!
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.

Fronts are £190 each nowadays - crazy price
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

No errors? Pushed all the way in?
Never used a nanocom but why is it reporting vast differences between wheels in wheel speed ?
