    Best is when draw little and ohm dropps and drag like hell and you got the cable in 2 pieces.

    OFF TOPIC:-

    Late VW, Ford, Crysler the abs sensors are powered by 12 volts and talk back via the power supply - (super imposed) - the sensors are 10000000% OPEN CIRCUIT untill powered - too last to use an ampmeter to test.

    ON TOPIC:-

    Sounds like abs modulater is ~~~~ed, like Rough-ash1111111969999999 said
    does it said 'mechanical fault' or 'open circuit'

    try another scanner, as you have a Snap-Off pile of poo.

    Hi

    Check the Air Gap between the sensor and the pick up ring might be big.........

    what tool are you using to read and what's the fault description is it saying as open circuit or mechanical fault

    As this is a Clio 2 i supposed that it's just a simple inductance sensor and not a hall effect thing or something similar. You can tell by the number of wires wether its inductive or not. IF it's inductive it might be worth to check the sensor itself directly.
    Yesterday we stood in front of the abyss. Today we'll move ahead.

    If you need any repair manual, pm me- maybe I can help you.

    PARTLY OFF TOPIC:-

    They still have two wires, pure 12 volt neg and pos (to naked eye)
    one pin on sensor is marked +

    ON TOPIC:-

    Have you tried unplugging the opposite side sensor, as you have a Sanp-Off tool, it's French, unplug opposite sensor see if it clams other wheel has been stolen.
