91 Celica - Damaged ABS Sensor. - captain
I have a 1991 Celica which I replaced the front wheel bearings on.
One of the ABS sensors got damaged and no the ABS light stops on
I've got two questions

1)Is it ok to drive ?
2)Where do I get a sensor from ?

fine to drive - you just won't have ABS. Or pass an MOT.

Toyota's do have a self diagnostic for the ABS system, but it does sound like you're pretty sure its the sensor. I can dig out more info if you like.

I had this probelm on my 1996 celica - I couldn't slide the sensor back into a different hub far enough. Even 2mm out meant it wasn't receiving a signal, which throws up the error code.

As for where to get them, the usual suspects like fensport don't seem to stock sensors.

Therefore I think it will have to be Toyota (gen 6 quote was over £100) or maybe a motor factor.
