ABS and "!" lights are ON again!

[blueswan]

Can anyone tell me where I would access the Canadian version of the TSB? My ! and ABS light just came on last night driving home in a snowstorm. I'd like to just replace the necessary parts rather than the whole assembly if I can, the dealership of course quoted me for the hub & sensor wiring.

Can I get instruct them to replace just the sensor wiring? How will I know that it is just the wiring and the hub is not required? I'm no techie with cars so I wouldn't know if thats a reasonable request.

I have a 2007 Yaris with 170,000 km on it.

Any advice would be appreciated, keeping in mind that I am not knowleadgeable about cars.

Regards and thanks,

Chris.

I haven't seen a source for Canadian TSBs, but if you look at the "Brake Control" section of the service manual (which is posted at the top of the DIY section), page 102 shows what's involved in replacing the senor/wire.

The wire is cheap (~$30), the sensor is a bit more (~$150), and the hub is ~$350. I would imagine that you'd have to add 2-4 hours of labor to that.

They probably just replace the whole mess, rather than taking the extra time to diagnose each portion of it.

Thanks CTScott, appreciate it.
