weinelm Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I have a car fitted without ABS. I'm in the process of fitting ABS sensors for RLTC. Can anyone tell me where the cables for the rear sensors should enter the boot? I have the sensors with grommets on, but I'm not sure where to start looking to put them through! Pictures showing the wiring routeing would be great! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weinelm Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Any chance someone can pop out to their car and have a look for me. I presume the sensors cables do go through into the boot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Not a very good pic, not easy to see. The cable goes inside a rubber tube and runs along the wishbone and under the chassis. If you need better pics and no one else can get them I could get you some tomorrow as I am on holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weinelm Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Merkx thanks for that, it's a great help. Can you see where the wire disappears into the car? Does it go into the spare wheel area or somewhere towards the edge of the boot. I want to see if I've got any grommets blanking off the holes – but there’s nothing obvious in my car.

merckx Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 It goes underneath, cannot see where it goes. I can have a good look in the morning if you want, it'll take 5 minutes to reverse it up onto my ramps. Nothing better to do, I'm staying off on the sick!

JustGav Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 There are two grommet holes in the boot either side of the spare wheel about .5 inch big.. that is where the wires for the abs disappear into. Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weinelm Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 merckx - I have a loom like that already (and like yours there's only one), so I'm thinking that can't be it - I'm sure I don't have any ABS cables in the car at present (certainly no sensors). tdaxgav - Have you got any pics? Or am I being dumb and are the holes are on the side wall? .. .I am going to have to take a look now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weinelm Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Ok, looking for dark holes, at night, on a black car wasn't ever going to be easy But I think we might be there! On the sides of the wheel well where the spare sits (hidden by the tool trays), I have four round black stickers. Two on each side. The top ones on each side are solid metal underneath, but the ones nearest the rear of the car have holes under them! Now just need to work out where the holes appear on the underside of the car... I guess they'll probably be blocked with grommets, so I'm going to leave that job until day light! Thanks for your help guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
normore1 Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 ABS cable goes to underside of the car through a hole on the left side of the sub-woofer housing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weinelm Posted May 24, 2005 Author Share Posted May 24, 2005 AH, another option. Thanks! I'll check that out in daylight tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
