theres one on every wheel hub,facing the drive shaft/rear hub..it will brake when you remove it..actually,remove one at a time and try the brakes,when the noise stops that's the culprit...buy new cos most will Just break when you remove them......
2 spanner rating on this...quite an easy job

There are 4 sensors and they are located on each wheel hub.
Sometimes you can see the pickups a round disc with holes around it.
I the pickups are not damaged then you can unplug the sensors and measure the resistance across the plug going to the sensor.
You do not need to know the specific resistance of each one as you are looking for the odd one out.
This will be the faulty one.
