Are you refering to the loom for the ABS sensors or the Loom that is for the Pump?

also are you sure the sensors are ok

Right got a new loom from vw and fitted it today, chased the wiring through the wheel arch into a massive loom, removed tape from the loom to expose the wires, cut the correct wires and soldered the new ones into the loom, road tested still have the same issue now I'm puzzled!! Has anyone repaired abs looms before?

Sure this isn't an issue with the sensor information?

Could be the wheel bearing ring or the Abs sensor it's self, if you've made a good repair to the harness!

Why did the harness get damaged originally, were you looking for the same fault and damaged the harness doing so?

Bower had an issue not too dissimilar read his posts and see if that helps with warning light issues.

Front or rear sensor wiring?
