ABS Issue
Thanks in advance to all who helped out.
To begin ABS light is solid yellow. E-brake not on or flashing. ONLY ABS LIGHT ON.
I was trying to replace my rear rotors on my 99 A4 yesterday and had some trouble. I didn't purchase new wheel bearings however the trouble is after i put everything back together. After taking off one rotor I knocked out the slotted ring on the back side it... must be something for the sensor. I put it back on but it now feels like its hitting the sensor when i spin the rotor. maybe it did that before i messed with everything but i sure know my ABS light was never on.
Everything back on and Im driving it around. Initially ABS ligt is NOT on however everytime I came to a stop I could feel the ABS kicking in. Come to a stop sign at 10 mph and ABS kicks in again. Then I get on the highway ABS light comes on and when I come to an exit the ABS is NO LONGER working or kicking in. It had to that slotted ring that I knocked off the rotor.
My question is... in what postion should the slotted thing be in? Should it be touching the sensor when i put in back on or should I knock the slotted thing in more so it doesn't touch.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks again fellas.

After some more research i've found out...
that the "reluctor ring" must be out of place. Here is a good site for my ABS issue. not my vehicle but good info in general. Looks like it needs to be placed just right... yikes!
