ABS sensor revisions/compatibility
I had to replace the wheel hub assembly on my 2000 986 S and replaced it with a 2002, which has a different ABS sensor connector. I tried to remove the correct sensor from the old hub but it was rusted in there and snapped out.
I've cut the connector off the older, correct sensor, and I plan to just try to splice this connector onto the newer revision as I'm worried about snapping if I try to replace the entire unit.
Has anyone tried this before? It's a simple two-wire system that I assume uses Hall-effect magnetics and so simply closes/opens the circuit when the marking passes the sensor, but I'm just curious if anyone has knowledge which proves this won't work.
