just for the record, your warranty does not cover botched installations by you, if covers manufacturer defect.

You say wire, is it a multi-conductor wire? Not exactly sure which wire your speaking of. Is it possible that you can just strip back the insulation and re-insulate the wires? Are they shorted?

It is not possible to strip and re insulate, as i have been told it conducts codes, reason why it can not be re insulated!...its the cable that conects at the steering nuckle assembly

if you want to do it right, I'm thinking buying a new abs sensor, and abs sensor connector (if this is what you pinched or whatever) is the way to go. i know i just bought two for a Lincoln TC (haha, Town Car) for 150 a piece, and the connector wires are I believe similar in price...

Not sure about a vendor for those, other than the dealership...

I don't know about labor, but I'm sure you could handle that yourself.

I do not know if 2005 and 2007 have the same parts ABS wise, but here is a great site for replacement parts, and the link for the ABS sensors.

http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/rafr...430774k1191967

EDIT: same/similar (didnt check sku/ID numbers) parts are listed under 2006 aswell, but not 2007. I hope that helps you.

in other news!
....I'm tired.

dealerships like to bend you over and have you take it up the tail pipe. good luck with your car!

I'm thinking you're taking that to be much more than it is. He answered your questions.

Junkyard, $50 and your good. I did something similar to this, but forgot to bolt it back in during my first coilover install

Dealer wanted 200 for the part, but I went to a local junkyard and picked one up for $50 =] goodluck with the search!
