Replacing the ABS Sensor on an Opel Astra

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Checks and maintenance

Do you have a problem with the ABS sensor? Here’s how to replace the part located under the front wing. Raise the vehicle to a comfortable height for working. Remove the wheel bolts using a telescopic spanner and take off the wheel. Unscrew the mounting bolts of the ABS sensor located above the brake disc. Disconnect all the clips holding the electrical wiring. Remove the plastic splash shield and (as shown in the video) disconnect the power connectors inside the wing. Fit the new ABS sensor and reattach the splash shield, then refit the wheel. Check if the installed part works.
