So, if the mechanic replaced the faulty sensor with the good one, you should
re-connect the fuse to test the system. If the ABS light still lit, that
means the problem has not been solved.
I would try to get sensors resistance reading at each wheel and if possible
with harness as far upstream as possible. I have seen ABS's harness
failure at rear trailing arm where it exposed to water from the wheel well,
there you will find two ABS connectors going into one harness. So make sure
it is clean and well sealed. Common ABS sensor failure is at front wheel.
Typical the internal resistance I have seen is around 1100 - 1300 ohms. My
failed sensor read as high as 12,000 ohms at time of failure and as low as
2,000 ohms when it dried up over a month or so. Small resistance reading
such as 100-200 ohms does not necessary indicates sensor failure.
Hope this help!
