#1: Can a grease covered ABS ring cause a ABS fault? Author: ssjgoku101, Location: earthPosted: Wed Sep 05, 2012 4:33 pm ---- So after fixing a busted CV boot I noticed the grease kind of exploded everywhere. I cleaned up as much of it as I could but the reluctor ring was covered in grease.
I'm wondering could this be the cause of an ABS fault? All the rings look in good condition apart from the grease covered one.
Thanks
Baz

If the gaps between the teeth are full of grease / debris then the ABS sensor will not read the teeth correctly & can error out.
