slip tcs off and antilock lights 92 q45

[mesallem]

hey guys, as soon as i start driving my car, all three lights turn on, slip tcs off and antilock lights turn on and when i look in the trunk, it gives me code 5 which is front left wheel sensor malfunction. Now very rarely the tcs work for the first few minutes of driving...but is very sensitive, like ill make a normal turn and it will activate the tcs, my question is, is there anyway to clean or fix the sensor or do i have to replace it? do you guys think its the sensor, or maybe just a bad connection...my car is a 92 q45 by the way

Follow FSM as to proceedure to test sensor for damage. Pretty rare unless an incompetent worked on brakes or suspension after an accident etc?Easy to test on a lift by spinning tire by hand and checking signal from sensor connection.

Do you have the FSM? Have you read the brakes section?

[Q45tech]

If one doesn't want to spend the time downloading and reading [ few hours] the FSM and buying test equipment and a lift/jack stands and other tools - one normally takes the vehicle to the dealer who has those things.

Most dealers charge $95-$120 to diagnose so if that is cheaper than your time and buying the things you need it is obvious what to do.

All shops will usually charge the same for oem parts.
