Wknd mission complete but....

I just put springs on my 05 is, and there are two sensors on the drivers side, one front and one back. I was driving right after I put them on and every time id make a turn, my traction (vsc) control would go off and the car would pretty much come to a stop! Turns out that the sensors didn't like the position of the new drop... So I pulled the back-up fuse to the abs ( what the traction control uses) until I can find another solution. The fuse for my car is #44 ABS2 but then you have no abs, vsc, or traction control. It makes it easier to do some driftin, or tear up your tires by doing donuts. Hope this helps.

Pull off each sensor in the front test the resistance. I forget the number off hand but I think jeff has it posted up.
wire probably broke. Its a pain in the *** to fix. First time I did mine it solved the problem... not so lucky the second, third and fourth time around.
Find some used working ones or buy some brand new ones AFTER you finish doing all your suspension work.

Nice looking GS... I really like those wheels. Too bad they dont make them on 20's.
How do you like those Linea Corse Dynas? Those are one of my wheel choices i'm deciding with. I'm deciding between the 3.. LC Dyna, LC 818, and MRR GT1.

Actually, I've fixed it in cars that had the wire break off in the sensor. It's a LOT more difficult and requires cutting and much more precise soldering skills. But, the point is that it's possible. IMO, still better than paying $200+ for a new sensor!

Maybe you misunderstood my comment... Unless I dont know how the sensor breaks I actually do have great soldering skills, learned in school... Broken wired soldering was literally the first thing we learned. I repaired the wire and still have lights on. if the sensor is broken, that has nothing to do with wire, its the sensor right? or is the sensor itself a wire? Let me know cause I'll open that biatch up and fix it, I'm SICK of dash lights already!
