Default 3dr cossie ABS sensor..anyone???

As above I need a front ABS sensor,Ford stated they are NLA but I think they are available for the sapp 2wd,not sure if they are the same or not?
Anyone know the answer here please?
Anyway I need a fron ABS sensor,anyone got one or know perhaps where I could get hold of one?
Not even 100% if it is the sensor itself as it had a much higher reading than the other 3 sensors when I had it tested at MSD last summer?Any help would be superb.
Many thanks.Lee.

The sensors are the same as are ones from Granada etc or any other ABS Sierra, what problems are you having?

Martin the abs light just stays on and has been like this since I purchased the car last May.Took it to MSD last summer for a set up and asked them to check it and it was found that the drivers front sensor was showing a much higher reading than the other 3.

Ok so it is probably is a duff sensor. I wish you all the best in getting it out as they can be very tight, use plenty of penetrating oil first taking care not to get on disc. Have you tried cleaning?
