Disconnect the ABS sensor at the connector. Measure the two pins with a volt - ohm meter. It should read between 800 ohms and 2500 ohms or 0.8 k ohms and 2.5k ohms. If the sensor reads open (very high ohms)or it it reads zero ohms (short) the sensor is no good and needs to be replace Photo shows open or very high resistance. Short will read 0.0 ohms
