Default Any connection between ps, pb, and rr abs sensor?

My power steering isn’t as easy as it should be while maneuvering.

my abs light goes on sometimes.

right rear abs sensor has 0 ohms

could the sensor be causing both problems?

Be careful on dragging seat pan out the door , felt door trim on lower edge

While seat pan out there is a battery cable tie point under a black rectangle plastic cover on the car's right that has the nuts comming loose

A good wheel sensor will read 1300 ohms as a basic meter reading

If you spin the tire in car fwd dirrection it will read 1 volt AC , you can compare to the other wheel

Connector has come loose on someone , but your's is a short and not typical fail ( within the sensor ) infinite resistance or open

Have you cleaned the face of the sensor different than connector clean ?

Do not pry too hard to remove sensor , plastic breaks leaving metal cap stuck in hole besides tearing up the internal sensor wires , ask me how I know , there is a trick from Motorcarman ( Bob )

Sensors hard to find and exspencive , but I did find mine on E - bay

The ABS sensors have 2 sets of 4 part #s during X300 production

They have raised numbers on them but better to check official part list

the set part #s change over on a VIN #

A left will not work on a right , has to do with the target crossing over sensor in correct spin direction

I checked the connector under the seat and rechecked the readings at the ABS connector - they were all similar so I either misread or fixed the that problem.
Landed up resoldering the ABS 12v motor outputs solving the ABS fault.

Still not having any luck with the Servotronic system.
