    1983 635 CSi Euro; ABS sensors for front end no longer produced

    I am looking for a workaround for part 34 52 1 179 981 (front ABS sensors) which is no longer available. My ABS light comes on intermittently and the dealer has identified that the L & R front sensors have an open circuit (i.e., faulty). My search for replacement parts has been futile so far. Does anyone have a solution for a replacement that works? Thank you for your time!

    Hi,
    I have a similar problem with my 85 M635 Euro. Were you able to rectify the ABS sensor problem? Mine are mush.
    Tks

    Hi George, My dealer has searched for the sensors and we can find rears, but not the fronts. They are not apparently made any more and it looks like folks have purchased all that were made. I keep searching on eBay to see if they pop up, but no luck so far. I thought someone clever might have spliced some parts together to make a workaround but nothing has popped up here as well. In the mean time, we have disabled the abs warning light in the dash. If you find a solution, please post back here. Regards, Mike
