abs sensor   
Citroen Xantia, front offside abs sensor. It causes intermittent fault light 
on panel (which is an MoT fail apparently).
Thought I would take it out and clean the connections-thereby saving 80 if 
successful.
Mr Haynes says to remove the heat shield from the hub carrier and unclip the 
wiring from the brackets. Easy.
Unscrew the securing stud and withdraw the sensor- 'see illustration', which 
shows a grubby hand holding a sensor away from the hub.
At the hub, the abs cable ends in a white plastic connector into a black 
plastic block on the hub carrier, with no apparent screws, studs, bolts nor 
any other fixing device known to me.
Is the stud hidden below this block? If so I guess it will disintegrate when 
I attempt to lever it out.

Funny thing is, the dash light is off since I jiggled it about and sprayed 
some contact cleaner on the connector block.
Must book it in for MoT.
