Wheel wire query was created by Blackout
Guys I have tried searching / googling so sorry for report but I have the flashing 4x4 on the jimny I recently purchased.

Understand this is likely a vacuum issue as it looks like standard hubs on the wheel. No problem going to get manual hubs anyway. I was wondering though is this the vacuum pipe broken on the picture or is this something else ? Was trying to identify the pipes and struggling. Thanks

Ahh I wondered what was missing in the guide rails could see a wire wasn’t there.

Is this a major thing ? Could I live without it or just buy new sensors and hope plugging it in will work

Thanks bud

Does the car have any yellow warning lights on the dashboard or just the flashing 4x4 you mentioned. Also under the bonnet is there a large silver metal block with a big plug of wires and a load of brake pipes going into it? It's just that it could have an abs hubs but not actually have abs in which case it is not a problem. If however it does have the rest of the abs system it is a safety critical system that needs to be operational, not least because it will void an insurance claim in the event of an rtc.

Will check for ABS hub when I get back. Just had 12 months MOT before picking up car so hoping it’s just the hub. No other lights on dash only when engaging 4x4.. approx 10-15 second delay then flashes. I can hear clunking when engaging
