I did a rear disk conversion on my EJ8 (pre-facelift EK coupe) a while back. The hubs were off an EG6, but did not come with ABS sensors.
The drum ABS sensors off my old hubs were a perfect fit, so at the time I decided to connect them to see if they would work (long shot I know). They didn't, and I ended up staring at an ABS light for months on end.
I then bought some rear ABS sensors off J700ck on here from an EK9 he broke. Fitted them, and the brackets along the wire are completely different to my old ones, ended up having to cable tie them mostly, and the cables were slightly shorter in length.
Checked, and the ABS light is still on....
Prior to fitting the new sensors, the ABS on front would still work intermittently, randomly the light would turn off and the ABS would kick in on the front, but it kick in a lot even under light braking, then the light would come back on and no ABS maybe for a week or two?!
Where am I going wrong here?!!! I thought all disc EK rear ABS sensors were the same, and as were all drum EK sensors?
It's doing my head in now
