Intermittent ABS fault (light coming on)

Fault as above.

Local garage diagnosed as rear offside sensor fault (due to it being open circuit, whilst other sensors are low ohms).

- They say the rear ABS senors often break on removal making what remains a big job to remove

Potentially scrapping Bongo

Sorting leisure battery configuration & wiring

I currently have a leisure battery fitted with a PMS 3V/H Power Management System.

1. The battery is only charged by using the hook up cable (not by the alternator when the engine is running)
2. There is a useful 'cigarette lighter' socket in the rear (mounted in the passenger side plastic rear ...

ABS sensor replacement

Have had front right ABS sensor diagnosed as faulty after ABS light came on.
