Removing ABS Sensor

[TimD]

Righty, i've removed the torx bolt but the thing wont budge

Is it a case of pulling it off with brute force or do i need to undo anything else?

My ABS keeps kicking in, when i had the car on vag-com it said the right hand side abs sensor was intermittent.

I've just disconnected the sensor for now taped it up and cable tied it out of the way.

Will get a new sensor ordered asap, but i need to remove the other one first, lol!

intermittant means it's OK - just needs a clean up most likely

but the 'best' way to get it out is to soak in WD40 & tap gentley

Ok i'll take it out and clean it next week..

See if it makes any difference.

don't need to take it out though, just clean with a rag

I already tried that..

I imagine the intermittent fault became more terminal?
