Abs is not working properly

Have problems with abs on my evo 8th
When you drive calmly and brakes gently. U can hear the abs work and you feel it in brake pedal.
This is on dry roads, so there is something wrong with abs

I can hear a "clicking" sound inside the car. Is there any guide to the abs box is?

No fault codes found on abs


I use Google-translate
Hope u can understand

sounds like a wheel speed sensor failure.

Can this cause the problem?

The wheel speed sensor is brand new.

Wheel sensor would throw ABS code if resistance is high or low. IIRC, it should be around 4ohms.

If its just gummed up between the ring and sensor I would think it would also throw a code since one corner would get no signal while the others are.

it has to completely fail before it will set a code permanently. if it's starting to go out and is intermittent it could cause problems and still not set a code. or it could set it and then clear at lower speeds.
