#1: ABS Light on After New Disc's and Pads Author: NathanG, Location: Ebbw Vagas (Wales)Posted: Fri Jan 04, 2013 12:47 pm ---- Evening,
I changed my front discs and pads yesterday as the old ones were knackered. All went well, jumped in the car, turned it on, pumped the brakes and everything was fine. Drove out of my drive and the ABS FAULT appeared and flashed on the dash.
Any idea what it could be, i didn't hit any of the sensors when smashing the old disc off, i took them off today and they look fine. One thing i did notice though was the ring of teeth on the drive shaft, well there a split between the teeth of about 2-3mm.
Would me changing the pads have affected the rear drums in any way.
Will i need to have the fault code removed via Peugeot.
Thanks for your help.

Exactly. All the teeth and equal distance apart except for 2 of them that have a 2-3 mm wider spacing where the ring has cracked.
I was wondering if that would have caused it but was a little unsure.

Will i need the fault cleared or will changing the driveshaft clear the fault as its not an emissions fault.

Shouldnt cost too much, we only charge £27.99 + vat for diagnostics for instance.
Not done one on a 206 before but often once the fault is flagged up, it wont dissapear untill the fault is fixed and then the codes cleared, although some do go out after you go above 30mph.
