Well, I did remove both front sensors today. I could indeed notice quite a bit of iron "dust" gathered around the tip of the sensor.
I cleared that out on both sides.
Then I looked down the hole with a flahlight. I could see the toothed wheel. It is rusted quite a bit, but I can clearly see that all teeth are still there.
So I used a steel pick (kind of screw driver but with a pointed end), and scraped every single "valley" between the teeth.
And, unfortunately, it didn't do a thing. Same symptoms.
I need to test everything before I start throwing expensive parts in there.
To be continued!
Bye,
