Question

I have 2004 passat tdi and just replaced the driver's side wheel bearing. Now my abs light is on. I think I hosed the sensor even though I had it out during the job. I came out easy before but now seems stuck. Any thoughts.

nothing other than pulling on the sensor to try and remove it to examine it. it came out very easy before but now seems pretty stuck.

Accepted Answer

seems like you might have damaged the sensor. The only real way to tell is to read the fault codes and erase them. But think you will end up changing the sensor.
