Corpse Grinder

Dear Members,

I own a 1995 lexus ES300 and had my CV joint replaced recently. I have now realized that the ABS speed sensor is damaged and should be replaced. I don't want to spend on a new sensor (costs more than $100). So I searched for a used lexus part at junk yards but no luck.. I was wondering if a used Camry part would work? If so which years?

Any suggestions are appreciated..

I found a site that sells them, as I am in the same boat.

Although it doesnt say what model or year they are for, under description it just says ABS Speed Sensors for Lexus/Toyota. I just assumed that the ABS systems are all the same, and the type of car would not matter...

They are $22 Sensor and wiring...

What year is your ES300? I'd like to look into that code 36 a little more. It seems to give different results depending on the year. As for the knocking noise, sounds like something else.

its a 93, I found the ABS codes thing, and it shows code 36 as "Open circuit in front right or rear right left speed sensor circuit"

Same as Code 35 just opposite side.

I'm guessing thats what it is, since only the ABS light is on.

The first three are speed sensor circuit faults. The last one seems to be a steering sensor circuit fault.

I sometimes hear a knock when turning the steering wheel. Will this cause that sensor to go off?

Any idea what it could be?

My 1996 ES 300 with 160, 000 miles is giving me code P0306, misfire number six cylinder. I replaced the plug, but that did not fix the problem. Any suggestions? Thanks

Did you change the plug wire aswell?!

Ive looked through pages, and couldnt find it in the stickies...

My ABS light came on, I scanned it and came up with these codes: 31, 32, 35, 36...

Are these speed sensor codes?

I had my CV Joints replaced awhile ago, the light came on after I got it back from the mechanic. He said the wiring might have went bad, so he ran some new wiring to the sensors(Front two) and the light went away. That was a few months ago, and now the light is on. When you first turn on the car, there is no light; but the first few stops you can feel the brakes jerking(almost as if you slammed on the brakes and engaged the ABS) then the light comes on, and the problem goes away(but obviously ABS is turned off)

Can anyone tell me what these codes exactly mean, and what needs to be fixed...

Thanks
