   I have a 2002 vts I replaced the brake disks and pads at the weekend but my abs light is still flashing on and off and ive developed a bit of a screaching when braking. Just wondering if anyone has any advice to solve the problems.

   That will be due to the fact that it will be a sensor fault and notheing to do with the disks and pads.

   One on each wheel hub.
   Have to find out which is at fault first.

   The squeeling maybe because you have no copper grease behind the pads. Or maybe because theyre just bedding in.
   
   ABS light is nothing to do with pads and discs.

   there is copper slip behind the back brakes but not the front; might have to take them off again. How do I check if the sensors are broken?
