Abs

[Teh_baje]

Hey guys I want to take my abs sensor out to clean it. I've removed the bolt but it's not budging is there anything else I need to remove or do I need to pull harder

they seize in to the hub. Chances are it's probably going to break if you try to remove it. Very common. Then you will need to drill out the broken portion of it
Trying to clean the sensor will not provide a remedy if your abs/traction lights are on. It is a magnetic sensor. I have seen several sensors fail before. Worst case its a control unit. Seen a few of those fail on non Mazdas

Yea after more research I found that out. Salt got into the connector and corroded the contacts. When I pulled the connector off, one of the pins broke off with the connector and I didn't realize. So it doesn't bother me to have to break it I have to replace it anyway.
