Title: Rear ABS loom?
Post by: GVK on August 15, 2020, 01:25:17 pm

Whilst fitting a rear ABS sensor I've managed (heavy handed) to snap the locking tab off the connector that goes onto the sensor  :slap:

Anyone know if there is a repair loom for these, cost of and how far does it go into the car?

The broken piece will have a part number on it. Simple splice should do it. Like me you may need a magnifier to ID

You can buy new connectors from vw or on ebay and replace it by de pinning the connector, there are some videos on YouTube.

Found this on ECS tuning.

right rear 1K0927904AJ will see if it's available from VW in UK.

Replacing that section of loom is likely to be a right faff.

I would go for replacement connector as suggested by Terrier & Octoparrot
The rubber boot will peel back and you just need to remove the pins and reassemble onto the replacement connector.
Personally I would be happy with a scrap yard sourced used connector, in fact grab a couple
