VW Passat 2016: Replacing the ABS wheel speed sensor
Переглядів 14 тис.3 роки тому
Airbag, ABS, ESP lights on? Check your wheel speed sensors! Update: After about 10 months, my rear RIGHT sensor has gone faulty now. I don't know what it is with these cars and these sensors. I went ahead and replaced it. Tip: the screw is a T30 male torx. It was hard to remove even with the screw out. I pryed it off with a screwdriver gently. Replacement works well.

No, confusing.
I didn't tell you this but you can push 99% out with the car A/C compressor hot wire the A/C clutch start the car and open the high side and pump it down into a recovery bottle. I have a Inficon Vortex recovery machine so I don't do it but it can be done.
valiant effort, had to swap out a leaking condenser on my van, just let it leak out, sorry ozone layer!
@@rickfromtexas9037 in that case it may be better to slowly release into a covered 5 gallon bucket of water then properly dispose at a facility.
@@Bizija123is r134a water soluble? If so it may be a viable way to recover it. If it can be removed from the water and dried, perhaps it could even be reused.
Thanks for the help!! what is the dimension of the 5th capacitor?
4.7 mfd, 35v
Assuming that the car has a working compressor what if you bypass the pressure switch and let the compressor pressure up the high side until the negative numbers are reached on the low side which should get you the rest of the freon pretty much
yes refrigerant can be contaminated by metalic dust
Cool vid..lol...this comment is for the hvac guys who might sneak in here... this wont work on a household system! Theoretically you could have dozens of evacuated cylinders😂.. but they cost money. Buy or rent a recovery machine..its not that hard and our kids are depending on us to do the right thing... Most auto part stores will loan it for free ... with collateral ofc.. thanks for showing! It wont work
Ten more tanks and tries might get most of it out
Even with dry eyes you're not gonna get it all hence needed a machine
Did you try doing it a second time to see if pulls the other half out? Maybe the tank just ran out of vacuum?
@@rusty81588 I tried from both low side and high side however once the tank equalizes in pressure with the car's system, it no longer pulled in any refrigerant. It appears that dry ice is needed to REALLY get the tank cold and lower the pressure enough to pull the freon in more. Someone also suggested having a second vacuumed tank to pull the rest in, but that is extra expense.
134a isnt that pricey, also pull from the liquid that way you get liquid volume not just vapor pressure. I also used to charge small refrigeration units through the liquid side before powering them up, then finish by vapor. If you are having problems with the system your refrigerant may be contaminated. Any oil pulled would be added back if you reused the refrigerant. hope this helps
Any reason why you didn't recover liquid refrigerant from the high side?
@@jumboegg5845 I was thinking about trying that however I read somewhere that it pulls out too much oil from the system.
Just buy another cylinder and repeat.
Haha yea that could work.
Dry ice can be bought in quite a few palaces, it can be a bit of money. Something to try in the future is add rock salt to your water bath. Its the way ice cream was made long before reliable refrigeration. Get a larger vessel, add more ice and a big scoop of the cheapest rock salt used for deicing roads and driveways. The rock salt will effectively make the ice melt faster and get the water bath to lower than the temperature of the ice alone. Interesting concept, thanks for sharing. Look forward to follow ups if you try this again.
We used dry ice in our Factory- try putting a hairdryer to the accumulator that will help.. Dry ice made it pull a vacuum on the gages
Interesting. Thanks for the input!
Stupid question. If you are replacing the compressor anyway, can you run the system to pump the remainder of the refrigerant out the high side into the tank.? You might have to jump the compressor clutch to keep it on for a few seconds until the system empties.
@@joeysantillo8977It sounds feasible. The high side will have higher pressure and push freon toward the tank. As you mentioned, the compressor will need to be jumped to bypass the cutoff switch. It will not be "good" for the compressor of course, but even if you're replacing it, you don't want to risk having it seize up and contaminate the system, which in itself opens a whole other set of problems.
@Bizija123 Honestly the chances of messing up the compressor in that scenario are pretty low. If the vehicle is at an idle, and you run the compressor until the gauges quit lowering, there will still be residual oil in the compressor keeping it lubricated. Same concept when draining trans fluid without a drain plug. Unhook a cooler line, idle the engine until fluid quits coming out, then immediately shut it off. Doesn't hurt the pump or starve it long enough to do any damage.
@@joeysantillo8977if the old compressor still works, you could use it to pump out the refrigerant. If not, you still need another way to get the refrigerant out.
Thank you for taking time to take the assembly out. I was needing a good look at how this spring hooked, and you can't really see what kind of a puzzle the Germans have engineered from above. Very helpful.
Thanks, guys! It's so usually!
Anyone try 5w50 or 0w50
Buddy replace the whole display panel with a working panel but it’s not working on it 🤔 could you plz help me little more about this 🙏🏻😊
Did you replace it with the same part number as your previous one? There are two different lcd panels.
@@Bizija123 I’m glad your reply to me 🙏🏻 Actually brother I bought another one complete meter and unfortunately there was a issue with the LCD panel and I just replace with my original panel 🤔 i thought it will work 😵💫
@@razirover5429 So you replaced the entire cluster and the lcd panel and nothing works? I'm not sure exactly what's wrong. You may have the wrong year cluster installed. Please post on benzworld.org forums. I am on there and others can help.
@@Bizija123 yes brother i got another use entire cluster with damage display panel and mine original cluster entire needles wasn’t working properly 😵💫I hope you understand brother 👀 so after that I just take off my original cluster and swap the LCD panel with new clusters I thought maybe it will work this LCD panel on 2nd cluster but still have the same issue 👀
@@razirover5429 I understand brother. What is the issue after you did the replacements? Is there nothing on the display? Does the replacement cluster light up? Do the needles work?
This was really great help🙏🏻 god bless you 🥰
Amazing work buddy 🫡 big thumps u👍🏻
Great video! It really helped, and I was able to exchange my old display for one off EBay that actually worked! Thanks so much
My dealer wants to charge $511 to replace front sensor. came on when i had my brakes done. 😢
Mine wants $550 for the same job
great share. like another question, can you provide mfg and part numbers for the capacitors that need replacing? thank yoU!
There aren't any part numbers but capacitors specifications. You need these www.ebay.com/itm/274996459942 and these www.ebay.com/itm/125983800514
@@Bizija123 thank you. I was more concerned about ensuring I order the correct physical size since they are surface mount. I know that some SMT electronics come in different sizes even though they have the same specs. thanks again for the quick reply!
@@user-iq5vr8uj7l They are tiny, about 5x5mm
So, this did not work for me. I still have a dimly lit DIC. Did you perform this and it worked for you? Do you know of another solution? thanks.
by the way, i would not recommend you doing this unless you have excellent expertise in removing and reinstalling SMT components. I tore the pads up and some of the traces. It really sucked.
Hey! Awesome video, I am in the process of replacing my display module as well, I found a brand new display module online and I was wondering if I just replace the module, would it be plug and play? Or would I have to do something else for it to show the information correctly? Thanks again for the video
It should be plug and play, just make sure you get the correct one out of the two possible part numbers.
whats the size of the 5th one?
My display is not only dim rather looks like "washed out". Sometimes it works after running for awhile and sometimes not. I was just thinking on finding a used cluster and pull out the LCD . How do I know if it would be fixed with the capacitors or if I need a whole display? Car is 2004. Thank you for your video ! Very helpful and detailed.
So I can just take this video to a shop and tell them to charge me 19 minutes of labor?
If I get a new cluster, does it have to be reprogrammed or can I just hook it up?
It won't need programming to your VIN, it will work, however you need to download the coding off your old cluster and upload into the replacement cluster. The coding tells the cluster which features your car has, etc. You will also have inaccurate odometer. Odo will just reflect the donor cluster mileage.
Well done! Very informative.
My display is out like yours, but where do I buy the capacitors? And do you have a video on how to remove and replace the capacitors? I bought the cluster removal tools today. Thanks!
I switched from 5w-30 to 5w40 and I haven’t heard this sound in a while
Hi, can you please tell me which oil Marke you use for 5w40
Good guy.
Your video really helped me, I was having a dim display & I only found a full LCD replacement for $100 But thanks to you I replaced the capacitors for around $11 and now working properly. Again thank you & keep the good work.
That's great to hear! You can't even find new units like this any longer so I'm happy to help.
What website did you get the sensor? Thx in advance.
Just did one last night. What a fucking pain in the ass this is. Even getting the covers off on the driver's side was a pain in the ass.
with all of the issues these soft tops have, can you just delete the whole thing and go hartop only?
I took the bulb out since it was getting ridiculously hot
I was able to get it out and replace it but after i installed the bulb i smelled burning
I am having a hard time getting the passenger low light spring out
Do you disconnect the battery to reset the computer after everything?
I did not need to, the codes and errors go away after everything is fixed. I did have an advanced obd scanner to clear the codes quickly.

This spring is so difficult to put back in that most likely you would have to pull the light back out on right/passenger side. Another example of idiotic German engineering.
This is a great video . I have been looking for an R129 convertible top replacement video and this one is great . This video makes the installation easier .

Fuck you talking about? It's not rocket science. Remove the speaker, remove the door strap screws and fish it out of the speaker.

What a complete waste of my time!!
What?
Thanks for time to post this. Very helpful. Looks like it might help with abc suspension for my w220
Great video. Made me steer clear of the Duralast sensors. Purchased a Bosch. Where did you purchase your Ancel VD700? I see them for $138 on Amazon and $75 on eBay. Want to make sure I get a functioning device. Thanks in advance for the help!
I originally purchased it on Amazon but I have since got even a nicer scanner (Thinktool mini), I'd be happy to sell you mine if you'd like for 50 plus shipping. It's been used very little.
