I have a 2006 V8 Petrol Toyota LC the ABS light has come on, The mechanic at Toyota has looked at the errors and they are C0200 Right Front wheel speed sensor and C0215 Left Rear Wheel speed sensor. I am a little surprised that 2 sensors would have gone faulty. Would anyone know if there is an ABS module where all the sensors are linked back to?
On the weekend I will get the multimeter out and take some measurements.
Thanks

Hi Shaun
Had a similar problem with my Cruiser, but rear wheel only. It ended up that the Toyota mechanic was heavy handed when removing the spare wheel or whilst the vehicle was on the hoist at service time and stripped a wire from the ABS wire join block located just in front of the spare wheel. Might be worth a look. They were going to throw expensive new sensors etc on my vehicle until they looked closely and realised they had torn a wire out.
Cheers
A

Check out these links on the code descriptions, can also be foreign matter on the sensors.

Thanks for the info, once you find the fault will the light go out or will the computer need to be reset?

It should go out if it is a foreign matter issue, power issues or voltage issues can also cause it, my advice would be to see a Toyota dealer , would not be 2 x sensors but most likely one of the above, to reset the computer disconnect the battery for a couple of hours.

Shaun,
I had a problem with my ABS light coming on in cold and wet weather only when I applied the brakes. Happened for about 2 weeks but then stopped and hasn't occurred again.
