SRS, ABS light on

Post by strauss9 »

I have 96 850T5 my srs light is on and my abs light goes on and off ,I had the codes read and it said for the abs that there is an error with my right rear wheel,I was told it could be a sensor or a loose wire I would like to fix this problem myself.The other srs light says an error with the airbag,I replaced the airbag as well as the the 2 seat belt tensioners and still I have this problem.I had someone look at it and he told me the problem lies with spiral the resistor got damaged when it deployed does anyone know of anysolution to my problem or shed some light.I am looking for cheap alternative to the dealers.If I require parts tell me where I can purchase them.
thanks

ABS is pretty technical for us DIY guys if it is more than a loose wire.

I do know the SRS light can only be turned off by the dealer. It won't go off automatically because the problem was fixed.
