Rear ABS sensor 3200

[Vince Hart]

Has anybody got any tricks to remove the ABS sensor from the rear hub on a 3200, this thing is really well today. I’ve tried soaking it a few times but there is absolutely no movement. The only thing I can think is to drill it but I’m really worried about the copper ring.
Also any alternative part replacement I know it’s a Bosch product but I haven’t researched it yet Euro spares. Have only got one secondhand one on the shelf at the moment and it’s discontinued.

Assuming you have removed the retaining bolt out ok, continue soaking with penetrating oil, but also apply some heat to the metal (careful of rubber items close by) around the sensor. Then get some chunky pliers and try to twist the sensor left and right in it's hole..... one you have some left\right movement, soak again, heat again, then try left\right twisting at the same time as pulling away from the hub..... with patience it should work.

Good luck!
